Join us to hear from Members of Congress and impacted individuals hours before Republicans are prepared to shut down the government rather than protect Americans’ health care needs.

Washington, DC – This summer, Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress slashed Medicaid to give tax breaks to billionaires. Now, they are threatening to shut down the government and lay off workers rather than working with Democrats to protect Americans from health insurance premium hikes and Republican health care cuts. Make no mistake. Americans know where responsibility lies if our government shuts down. Republicans control the House, Senate and White House. If the government shuts down, it’s because they chose to shut it down rather than pass a budget that protects our health care and keeps costs from rising.

On Tuesday, September 30th, at 6 PM ET, hours before the government funding deadline, Fair Share America and partners will hold a rally to hear from elected leaders and people across the country about how Republicans’ billionaires-first agenda is driving up costs for American families. Join us as we call for protecting Americans’ health care and standing up to Republicans as they threaten to shut down our government.
