In California, 2.3 million people are covered by Medicaid. In addition to covering medical care, the program also helps with transportation costs, in-home care, and access to other community support for persons with disabilities and older adults. But that support is in jeopardy.Currently, Congress is trying to cut this program by $800 billion, which would lead to a major reduction in services. Our guest on this week’s program of Pushing Limits is healthcare advocate and Youtuber Jane Hash. She will talk about the impact of those cuts on her and other people with disabilities. Plus, Hash will speak frankly about how people with disabilities are struggling to survive in a country that doesn’t adequately fund the services we need.This episode of Pushing Limits is written and produced by Jacob Lesner-Buxton. It is hosted and edited by Dominick Trevethan with assistance by Adrienne Lauby and Denny Daughters.Relevant Resources:Jane Hash’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@JaneHashCNHPLatest info on ways to protect Medicaid: https://justiceinaging.org/Jane HashThe post The Consequences of Cuts to Medicaid – Pushing Limits – March 28, 2025 appeared first on KPFA.
