  • LEARN ABOUT NO- AND LOW-COST ACTIVIST TECH TOOLS Whether we are interested in winning elections, supporting people who are, or advocating for change with policymakers and elected officials, we will want to hear this  interview with Deepak Puri, of DemLabs, live on Sunday, January 29 at 7:30 pm EST. Deepak has been cited in Newsweek and NBC as an expert in identifying effective low- and no-cost technologies. We will meet a fascinating man who resigned from his executive positions in Silicon Valley to work pro bono helping progressive causes and candidates win with leading edge technologies.  We can register here at no cost.   

  • MEDICAID RECIPIENTS AT RISK The number is uncertain, but the Kaiser Family  Foundation estimates that between 5.3 and 14.2 million people will lose their Medicaid coverage due to the end of “continuous coverage” mandated by Congress on Dec. 29, 2022 as part of a “spending” bill and set to take effect on March 31. NPR puts the number at 6 to 8 million.  “Continuous coverage,” adopted as a pandemic measure, relieved Medicaid recipients of mandatory disenrollment/reenrollment along with other administrative burdens, all of which had made getting Medicaid an ordeal and ensured reduced use of this program; continuous coverage dramatically increased the number of people covered by medical insurance.  We need to urge the leaders of the Department of Health and Human Services at 1-877-696-6775 or @SecBecerra  to join the epidemiologists in acknowledging that the pandemic is not “over” and press the federal government to keep this option for all who need it.
