Ms. CLARK of Massachusetts. Mr. Speaker, I recently heard from a mom in Massachusetts. I will call her Rachel.
Rachel's son was born 3 months early and then spent 2 years in the hospital. He is finally home, but he needs a ventilator and a feeding tube. Still, his mom says he is the happiest little 3-year-old in town.
They have been through a lot, but they are able to get by--unless this Republican budget becomes law.
Medicaid pays for the daily care this little boy needs to survive. Rachel wrote: ``We are terrified about what losing Medicaid support would mean for our family.''
Moms have enough to deal with. Let's leave their healthcare alone.
