REAL LIFE Voices Urge Congress: Protect Medicaid, Protect Recovery

Posted: April 23, 2025 | Author: Real Life Staff

REAL LIFE has joined the growing chorus of voices urging Congress to protect Medicaid expansion, which currently provides life-saving healthcare to over 630,000 Virginians.

REAL LIFE stands in strong opposition to proposed federal budget cuts that could trigger Virginia’s “kill switch” on Medicaid expansion—immediately ending coverage for thousands. The organization emphasizes that reducing access to essential health care services would have devastating effects, especially for individuals working to overcome addiction and reenter society. As REAL LIFE continues its mission of helping individuals find healing and stability, it is actively advocating to ensure that Medicaid remains accessible for those who need it most.
