Thom Tillis wants to cut 10-15% from Medicare. That’s not about “efficiency,” it’s about ripping away care from seniors who depend on it. I joined @wcnc-charlotte.bsky.social to expose the harsh reality: Tillis’ plan would put the health of NC’s seniors at serious risk.

The "Big Ugly Bill" will force rural hospitals in North Carolina to close by slashing Medicaid funding. Many of these hospitals rely on Medicaid to stay open and serve their communities. This bill will make it harder for them to survive, threatening access to care for those who need it most.
