Mariannette Miller-Meeks Votes to Rip Away Health Care Access and Take Food Off of Iowans’ Tables

Miller-Meeks’ vote takes away health care coverage and food assistance from working parents, kids, seniors, and people with disabilities in Iowa

Mariannette Miller-Meeks and House Republicans just passed a far-right budget resolution that will rip away health care coverage and affordable food for millions of American families, all so they can fund massive tax breaks for their billionaire backers and wealthy corporations.

In IA-01 alone, this dangerous vote risks health care coverage for 66,000 people and food assistance for nearly 29,000 households.

Despite the loud outcry of people in IA-01 warning Miller-Meeks to vote against decimating Medicaid and threatening their livelihoods, Miller-Meeks still voted to pass this destructive budget scam, once again choosing her D.C. party bosses and billionaires over Iowans.

The DCCC will hold Mariannette Miller-Meeks accountable for her support of this dangerous agenda to rip away health care and food access from Iowa families. 

DCCC Spokesperson Justin Chermol: 
“Mariannette Miller-Meeks just sealed her political fate by inflicting this massive pain on Iowa families, and no amount of her desperate lies will save them from the political fallout of this vote.”
