Defending Your Health: Our Commitment to Protecting Care

The healthcare landscape is facing a period of significant uncertainty driven by policy decisions at both the federal and state levels. Across California, coverage losses and persistent gaps in access are the direct result of shifting political priorities and the rollback of temporary protections that once helped millions stay insured.

This transition threatens to create the most severe disruption to healthcare access we have seen in years — placing working families, low-income communities, and safety-net providers under unprecedented strain at a time when care is needed most.
