Kids rely on Medicaid for everything from prescriptions to specialists. Cuts would make the care they need harder to access. #ProtectMedicaid #HandsOffMedicaid #SaveMedicaid #HandsOffOurMedicaid

Medicaid = Health Insurance! It provides free or low-cost coverage to millions of low-income Americans, including kids, pregnant women, and people with disabilities. A vital lifeline for healthcare in the U.S. 🌟 Call your member of Congress and Protect Medicaid 866-426-2631

As the fires continue to devastate LA County, CSCC's heart goes out to all of those affected by the trauma of what is happening in their community. We also express deep gratitude to the providers who continue to serve children and families during this time of great adversity.

Proposition 35 is a vote for equity in health care because it will bridge gaps and disparities throughout the system while supporting better health outcomes for all our children.

CSCC is proud to support #Prop35. It will improve access to pediatric specialty care for all kids in California. #YESon35
We’re among hundreds of health care organizations supporting #YESon35. #Prop35 will protect Medi-Cal for over 15 million Californians, guarantee health care funding that can’t be redirected, keep hospitals open and accessible, and reduce emergency room wait times for everyone.

Without access to health care, California's children and families suffer. This November, vote #Yeson35 to ensure health care dollars go directly to health care - and patients. @VoteYes35

Great news: @CAgovernor signed AB 3059 into LAW 👶🍼. For infants in the NICU, donor milk is a lifeline. With this new law, babies & families will now have easier access to lifesaving nutrition. Thank you @asmakilahweber for your leadership😍 @ucmilkbank

Medicine doesn’t work if children won’t take it! @cagovernor, please sign AB 3063 and bring access to medicine flavoring back to CA families. #theyuckstopshere
As a mom, I know how difficult it can be to get kids to take medicine! It doesn’t have to be. AB 3063 will make it easier for kids to take medicine! 48 other states have adopted legislation. Lets go CA. @cagovernor #theyuckstopshere Sign the petition: https://t.co/ac0UYm4Tfj

At the hearing on Prop. 35, CSCC's Erin Kelly said, "young people with complex health conditions face unparalleled challenges in trying to find pediatric specialists and Prop. 35 will provide the funding and workforce training to finally give them the care they deserve.” #Yeson35

Today, CSCC testified in opposition before the Asm. Budget Subcommittee on Health to the May Revise proposal to sweep MCO Tax dollars. These dollars represent a significant opportunity to improve access to pediatric specialty care and must be used for their intended purpose.
