Medicaid is under threat. Physicians can help protect it – one text at a time.

Congress is threatening deep cuts to Medicaid – jeopardizing care for millions of Californians, including veterans, children, seniors, people with disabilities, and those served by safety-net hospitals and clinics. Thanks to the generosity of Kaiser Permanente, the California Medical Association, in partnership with the Protect Our Health Care Coalition, has launched a national voter-to-voter texting campaign to stop the cuts to Medicaid.

Here’s how it works:

• Volunteer to send texts to voters in key congressional districts, urging them to contact their Representatives. Your personal phone number will never be shared.
• Each message includes a simple link for voters to take action, amplifying your impact. All texts are pre-written and will be sent by you with a simple click!
• Texting is fast, effective and must be done by real people – it cannot be automated. That’s why your help is essential. It takes just minutes to get started.

Please capitalize the first letters of your first and last name, ensuring there are no typos. The way you enter your information will be directly merged into the copy of the text to personalize each send.

You’ll get a welcome email from Rumble Up, which will include your Project Password so you can start texting.
