Urge our elected representatives now to oppose efforts to cut funding to Health and Human Services in FY26.
We’re collecting signatures to show Congres that the American people support public health funding, and are opposed to any legislation that would jeopardize public health!
Sample Message to Congress:
As a resident in your district, I’m writing to urge you to fully fund the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in the upcoming budget.
The proposed cuts in the FY26 HHS Passback would devastate critical public health programs that protect families, seniors, and rural communities across the United States. Without adequate funding, we risk losing essential services such as:
· Vaccination programs for children and adults
· Emergency health response teams
· Rural health clinics that many communities depend on
· Maternal and child health services that save lives every day
Public health saves lives quietly — but when it's underfunded, the consequences are devastating and visible. Please reject any budget proposal that cuts HHS funding. Instead, stand up for the health and safety of the people you represent by fully funding these life-saving programs.
Thank you for your time and for your commitment to protecting public health.
Sincerely,
