Protect Medicaid and SNAP Amid Budget Talks, AARP Tells Congress

The article from AARP discusses the critical role of Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in supporting millions of Americans, particularly older adults, people with disabilities, and low-income families. It highlights the potential threats to these programs due to proposed budget cuts and changes in eligibility criteria, which could significantly impact their effectiveness. The piece emphasizes the importance of these programs in providing essential healthcare and nutritional support, preventing poverty, and promoting health and independence among vulnerable populations. AARP advocates for the protection of these programs, urging policymakers to consider the long-term benefits of maintaining and possibly expanding these safety nets rather than reducing them. The article also calls for public engagement to ensure these programs continue to serve those in need effectively.
