Stop the funding cuts to the Home and Community-Based Waiver Programs in Pennsylvania.
Why is this important?
My name is Michael Pellicano. I am a quadriplegic who relies on the critical funding of the Home and Community Waiver Based Programs which help provide caregivers for the elderly, sick and disabled. The funding cut enacted by Gov. Corbett and PA legislature reduces care workers already low wages by $.45 an hour. These care workers receive no benefits of any kind. In addition this funding cut will hurt those most in need of assistance with basic daily care they are unable to do for themselves. Please tell Gov. Corbett and the PA legislature to stop these funding cuts.
