SUMMARY:Merrimack Valley Town Hall:  Protect Our Care
DESCRIPTION:The Problem: MA Faces Massive Cuts to Healthcare\, Food Aid\, and Education (To Fund Trump’s Tax Cuts for Billionaires and Big Corporations) \n\n\n\n\nUp to 350\,000 people in MA risk losing healthcare & food assistance due to massive cuts to Medicaid and SNAP\n\n\n\nMA is set to lose as much as $3.5 billion in annual federal aid — blowing a massive hole in the state budget\n\n\n\nFederal cuts to PreK-12 schools\, colleges\, and childcare could hurt more than 1 million students.\n\n\n\n\nOur Solution: Protect Our Care with Mass Corporate Fair Share and Reserves\n\n\n\nMassachusetts can prevent the worst of these devastating budget cuts by: \n\n\n\n\nTapping the state’s $8 billion rainy day fund\n\n\n\nMaking billionaire tax-dodging global corporations like Apple\, Amazon\, McDonalds\, & Walmart pay their fair share in state taxes\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for one of our upcoming Protect our Care Town Halls to learn more about how MA can tap the state’s rainy day fund and and pass our MASS Corporate Fair Share Legislation to raise more than $1.5 Billion to stop devasting Federal cuts to healthcare\, food assistance\, education\, and other critical services in MA. \n\n\n\n\nRSVP
