Down Home North Carolina
Now, more than ever, North Carolina needs to expand Medicaid.

Frontline workers-- cashiers, childcare workers, gas station attendants-- are doing the essential work to keep our economy going during this public health crisis. These same workers desperately need health insurance coverage as they work to make sure that we are taken care of. When people are uninsured, they are less likely to seek care, jeopardizing their own health and unintentionally risking others. 

Now, more than ever, North Carolina needs to expand Medicaid as both an economic boost and as a public health intervention to provide North Carolinians with the coverage they need to protect their health and financial well-being. 

Rural hospitals and community health care centers must keep their doors open during this public health crisis and expanding Medicaid will help compensate them for the lifesaving care they provide. 

A clean expansion of Medicaid in North Carolina is the fastest and most effective way to ensure that North Carolina families, our economy, our healthcare system, and our communities can survive this crisis and stay strong into the future.
