In case you missed it: MomsRising October Community Meeting<\/h2>\n

During our time together, we talked about what\u2019s really going on with the government shutdown and how Republicans in Congress\u2019 reckless decisions have pushed our health care system into a full-on crisis. When Republicans cut $1 trillion from health care programs this summer, they took health care from over 15 million people. Now, the Affordable Care Act\u2019s enhanced premium tax credits\u2014which help 24 million people afford health care\u2014are also under threat, putting affordable health care at even greater risk. Instead of funding essential health care programs, Republican leaders in Congress have doubled down on cuts and even shut down the government out of unwillingness to negotiate.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s become very clear that their priority isn\u2019t families or care, but tax breaks for millionaires and terrifying hardworking immigrants, people who are critical to our care infrastructure, our economy, and our futures! But we are not backing down. Together, we are meeting up, organizing, speaking out, and fighting for the care every family deserve.<\/p>\n

We are very grateful to our expert guest speakers, including Neera Tanden, President and CEO, Center for American Progress (CAP), and Fatima Goss Graves, President and CEO, National Women\u2019s Law Center (NWLC), for our October Community Zoom Meeting!<\/p>\n

QUICK LIST: Read and share helpful shutdown resources<\/h2>\n

We moms shouldn\u2019t have to hold the nation together on empty.<\/p>\n

Yet here we are in the middle of a government shutdown that has thrown families into chaos. SNAP benefits are being cut; air traffic controllers, military school teachers, families in several states are losing child care as Head Start centers start to close; and other federal employees are facing another missed paycheck (while still showing up every day, keeping our country running!). WIC is barely hanging on by thread, and rising costs are pushing families past the brink.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re holding our communities and workplaces together, and once again, we’re holding the nation together, while the resources families need are stalled because Republican leaders in Washington, DC won\u2019t come to the negotiating table! We have some resources to share with you and that YOU can share with others.<\/p>\n

Check out the list of resources.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
