Statement on Medicaid Cuts

Allergy & Asthma Network is deeply concerned by Medicaid cuts outlined in the federal reconciliation package in Congress. We fear these cuts will jeopardize access to essential medical coverage for millions of people – including infants and children – who rely on this vital safety net for their asthma and allergy care.

AAN Advocates Go to Capitol Hill

On May 7, we hosted the 28th annual Allergy & Asthma Day Capitol Hill (AADCH) in Washington, DC – a powerful day of advocacy and action! More than 100 advocates met with members of Congress, urging support for asthma and allergy legislation. At the same time, 430+ virtual advocates sent 1,500 emails to lawmakers, amplifying the voices of patients and families.
