I am a water filter.

As I process the news, especially anything related to Medicaid or community-funding changes, I begin to accumulate particles of filth. The ignorance, the racism, the hatred, the glaring silence, all like little bits of dirt that get stuck in me. And then I wonder why I feel so awful, why getting angry feels so good, why even existing right now is so heavy.

Getting angry and doing something dumps the crap out of my filter. Finding other people who care dumps it out. Doing something locally does too. But mostly just seeing it, noticing and pointing at it, makes it less poisonous.

Clean out your filter however you can. The filth won't stop, but it doesn't have to choke you. #medicaid #selfcare #caregiver #community #politics

"There are 2 million fewer children enrolled in either Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program compared to January 2025, according to a new report.

The Children and Families at Georgetown University's McCourt School of Public Policy operates a state-by-state enrollment tracker that identified the declines through April, and warned that enrollment drop-offs at this scale should alarm policymakers."

"An increasing number of immigrants avoided applying for programs like Medicaid, too scared to risk drawing attention to their or a family member’s immigration status, even if they were eligible."
