From: [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) [_mailto:[email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]?) ] On Behalf Of Diane Coleman Sent: Monday, June 27, 2011 10:42 AM To: [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) Subject: Urgent Alert: Call Speaker Boehner’s District and DC Offices Now As ADAPT Demands New Strategy for Medicaid Spending Importance: High Urgent Alert: Call Speaker Boehner’s District and DC Offices Now As ADAPT Demands New Strategy for Medicaid Spending Twenty members of ADAPT, the national disability rights direct action organization, are at the Troy district office of U.S. Representative John Boehner, demanding that Boehner set a date to meet with them on federal Medicaid spending strategy. Boehner and the Republican party want to make drastic cuts to Medicaid spending. ADAPTers say that money can be better saved by ensuring that a greater proportion of Medicaid spending be invested in home- and community-based supports. Telephone Speaker Boehner at both his Troy, Ohio and Washington, D.C. offices: Troy, Ohio Office: (937) 339-1524 Washington, D.C. Office: (202) 225-6205 This is the message: “Speaker Boehner should meet with ADAPT because people with disabilities and seniors want to be able to live in our own homes, not nursing facilities and institutions. The strategy of investing in home- and community-based supports is a proven cost saving measure.” For more information about ADAPT, please visit _www.adapt.org_ (http://www.adapt.org/) .
