The Proposed Medicaid Cuts Will Cost Arkansas Billions 

Over the next 10 years, Arkansans would lose nearly $10 billion in health care coverage.

Medicaid and SNAP in jeopardy with proposed federal cuts 

The budget proposals would be extremely harmful. And they do nothing to fulfill elected officials’ promises of easing economic burdens or bringing down the price of groceries.  

The Federal and State Budgets are both Important in the Lives of Arkansans

These funds are used for education, health care, and infrastructure.

Federal Medicaid Cuts Would Decimate Arkansas Small Towns and Rural Communities 

Our leaders must take Medicaid funding cuts off the table. 

Federal Legislation Restores Benefits to Marshallese, at Long Last

Today we are celebrating the restoration of benefits for Marshallese Arkansans!
