Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Medicaid Defense

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Medicaid are foundational to women’s health.

Millions of women get healthcare through Medicaid and the ACA including preventive care, family planning services, maternal health care, and more.

We are defending against attacks on these foundational health programs and working to ensure access to high quality, lower cost health care for all women and families.

This includes fighting to protect the consumer protections in the ACA that prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability in health care.

The resources in this section summarize the importance of Medicaid and the ACA to women and families, and highlight what is at risk in attempts to repeal or undermine them.
