On behalf of the 53,000 people targeted to lose their BadgerCare due to the proposed large premium increases (possibly as high as 1100%), we say, "Don't balance the budget on the backs of the truly medically needy!"
Why is this important?
The WI Republicans want to help balance the budget by kicking 53,000 adults and children off BadgerCare. Premiums are scheduled to increase as much as 1100%. This is totally unacceptable. This will prevent people from getting cheaper healthcare earlier, and drive up costs with later expensive emergency room visits and preventable hospitalizations. Tell Gov. Walker and the Fitzgerald brothers this is unacceptable.
