Advocacy Update from the Cancer Policy Institute



Dear Grassroots Advocacy Network Member,

Congress has begun the process to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA) so it is imperative that you share your voice now. Tell your representative not to repeal the law without a replacement that would ensure affordable and accessible comprehensive health care coverage.

Because of letters and phone calls from people like you, lawmakers are starting to demand that any replacement to the ACA contain provisions to protect patients and ensure affordable access to comprehensive health care. If you are someone who is interested in protecting the provisions that are particularly important for patients with cancer, including nondiscrimination due to a pre-existing condition, bans on annual lifetime benefit caps, premium rating restrictions, or prohibiting coverage rescissions please reach out today. 

To contact your representatives and tell them not to repeal the ACA without an equal or improved replacement that will protect people with a history of cancer please click here or call (202) 224-3121.
The time to act is now!

Many thanks,

Kristen Santiago
Senior Director, Policy & Advocacy
