SUMMARY:[Justice in Aging] Protect Medicaid: State Revenue Strategies for Aging & Disability Advocates
DESCRIPTION:[Justice in Aging] Protect Medicaid: State Revenue Strategies for Aging & Disability Advocates\nWhen: Tuesday\, March 10\, 2026 from 11:00 a.m. – 12:15 p.m. PT/2:00 p.m. – 3:15 p.m. ET \n\n\n\nIn July 2025\, President Trump signed the Budget Reconciliation Act of 2025 (H.R. 1)\, which includes over $1 trillion in cuts to federal funding for Medicaid and SNAP. Those unprecedented cuts are creating major holes in state budgets nationwide that put Medicaid home-based care\, dental care\, nutrition programs and other vital services for older adults and people with disabilities at risk. \nStates have to balance their budgets\, so Medicaid\, SNAP\, and other public programs are all under significant risk. But cutting is not the only option; states can and should pursue sound revenue solutions instead. It is critical that aging and disability advocates and providers engage in budget and revenue discussions with their state policymakers now to protect the benefits older adults and disabled people depend on. \nThis webinar\, Protect Medicaid: State Revenue Strategies for Aging and Disability Advocates\, will include a discussion about what the H.R. 1 funding cuts mean for the programs older adults and people with disabilities rely on to meet their basic needs\, and provide strategies for how advocates can engage with their states to protect them. Presenters will provide a high-level overview of state budget processes and revenue options and will share practical steps that aging and disability advocates and providers can take. \nThis webinar will be most useful for state-based advocates and providers working with older adults and people with disabilities\, as well as budget and revenue advocates who want to learn more about issues impacting aging and disability services. \nAfter attending this training\, attendees will be able to: \n\nUnderstand H.R. 1’s cuts to Medicaid and SNAP funding and the impact on older adults and people with disabilities\nIdentify steps in state budget processes and types of revenue strategies\nApply practical\, actionable steps advocates and providers can take to engage in revenue discussions to prevent benefit cuts\n\nPresenters: \n\nNatalie Kean\, Director of Federal Health Advocacy\, Justice in Aging\nWesley Tharpe\, Senior Advisor for State Tax Policy\, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities\nKelly Allen\, Executive Director\, West Virginia Center on Budget and Policy\nYasmin Peled\, Director of California Government Affairs\, Justice in Aging\n\nBackground Information for Attendees: \n\nJustice in Aging Resource: What’s in the Budget Reconciliation Act of 2025 and What Does it Mean for Low-Income Older Adults’ Access to Health and Long-Term Care\nJustice in Aging Webinar: Medicaid Cuts in H.R. 1: Updates for Aging Advocates\nCBPP Blog: States Must Prioritize Revenue to Support People and Communities in Wake of Harmful Republican Megabill\nCBPP Interactive:  State and Local Revenue Options for Advancing a Brighter Future\n\nThis webinar will take place on Tuesday\, March 10\, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. PT/2:00 p.m. ET and will run for 75 minutes. \nRegister Now

Unfortunately\, since taking office in 2025\, the administration has unleashed a new round of attacks on the LGBTQ+ community\, including older adults\, rolling back their civil rights and rendering them invisible through policy while unleashing hateful rhetoric.
