About
Join us on Wednesday, July 8th from 12-1pm at the Montana State Capitol Rotunda as we stand together to protect Medicaid access across Montana.💪 On July 1, Montana DPHHS will begin implementing new "community engagement" requirements, better known as work requirements, for those applying for Medicaid and existing Medicaid enrollees. These requirements are starting six months before federal requirements take effect in January 2027, putting tens of thousands at risk of losing their health coverage, because of unnecessary red tape, not because they are ineligible. Not only will this place even more pressure on Montanans already struggling with rising costs of living, but this will further burden DPHHS, which is woefully unprepared to take on more administrative tasks. Whether you rely on Medicaid or simply believe everyone deserves access to healthcare, we invite you to stand in solidarity with Montanans facing coverage loss. A short speaking program and light refreshments will be provided. If you have questions or need support with attendance, please email Dillon: [email removed].
