If you would rather write your own letter to the editor and not use our sample, here are several points to be sure you hit on:
Donald Trump is already making plans to further the far-right MAGA agenda if reelected, including completely privatizing Medicare.
Trump and Republicans want to make Medicare Advantage, which is offered through private insurance companies, the default program for everyone who is newly eligible for Medicare.
Medicare Advantage plans deny patients’ the coverage they need for essential health care and services, and puts their lives at risk.
Once again Trump and MAGA Republicans are prioritizing profits over people, using our tax dollars to help private insurance companies make money instead of ensuring that Medicare recipients receive the health care they need.
Over 65 million Americans rely on Medicare for their health care, and over 400,000 people become newly eligible each year. Their health and lives are at stake in the November election.
We cannot give Trump the opportunity to completely eliminate traditional Medicare and force them all into a worse Medicare Advantage plan instead.
A vote for Trump is a vote to take away quality healthcare from tens of millions of Americans.
