REPORT: Republicans Are Celebrating Women’s History Month by Gutting Women’s Health Care - Elsacat - Mar 4 2026 Article Quote:From gutting $1 trillion from Medicaid to enrich billionaires and big corporations to ripping away health tax credits from over 12 million women to tearing away reproductive freedom, the GOP is regressing women’s health by decades. To get a glimpse of the fallout from the GOP’s radical corporate agenda, look no further than its impact on caregivers. Standing 63 million strong — more than 60 percent of whom are women — caregivers are having the rug pulled out from under them. Now, millions of women caregivers, like Susan from Colorado, are losing critical Medicaid income that helps keep their families afloat — forcing them to make impossible decisions between rent, groceries, and, most gut-wrenchingly, giving up caring for their loved ones in order to afford Republicans’ skyrocketing health care costs. RE: REPORT: Republicans Are Celebrating Women’s History Month by Gutting Women’s Healt... - dobby - Mar 30 2026 Republicans hate women and girls so much. 😢 it's just so depressing everytime i see a self-described feminist promote the Republican party just because "they know what a woman is". Honestly, given what the Republicans have been doing to women's healthcare and women's rights overall, I wish that they didn't know what a woman was. Republican party is for the elites and the billionaires, yet they've successfully fooled so many people into believing that these rich pedo billionaires actually will help some of the working-class as long as they're white enough. That's not even true though, given how much working-class and poor white people suffer from lack of accessible and affordable/free healthcare options, due to all the Medicaid cuts and the refusal to expand Medicaid in red states. Medicaid is essential for so many low-income US citizens, and yet there are still flaws in the system that end up leading to waste and neglect, but it feels like we'll never be able to get to the point of improving/fixing the flaws in the Medicaid system with all these cuts in funding and with Medicaid always being at risk of being further limited. So many rural hospitals that have closed due to Medicaid cuts makes the whole situation even worse. |
