ACA Premium Spikes; Latina Equal Pay Day; Attacks on Public Health; Medicaid Under Fire

On the radio show this week, we start by delving into the escalating costs of healthcare, particularly the impact of expiring tax credits on Affordable Care Act premiums and coverage for millions. After that, we highlight Latina Equal Pay Day, exploring the persistent wage gap and its effects on Latina women and their families. Following that segment, we examine the concerning trend of attacks on public health initiatives and the importance of accurate medical information. Finally, we close the show by discussing how cuts to Medicaid are negatively impacting access to essential healthcare services.
