On April 22, 2026, Hemophilia Federation of America joined 43 other patient and rare disease organizations, which make up the Partnership to Protect Coverage, in urging federal leaders in to protect additional cuts or policies impacting Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act.

The letter, addressed to Senate Majority Leader John Thune, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, and other members of the Congress, states: 

“On behalf of millions of patients and consumers who face serious, acute, and chronic health conditions, our 44 organizations write to strongly urge you to exclude any additional funding cuts or policies that would further impact Medicaid and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) in any future reconciliation package.

H.R. 1 made sweeping cuts to Medicaid and ACA Marketplace coverage, impacting millions of patients and consumers across the United States. As the country grapples with a healthcare affordability crisis, it is essential that Congress take steps to mitigate the impacts of these cuts and strengthen our systems of care, not further jeopardize patients’ ability to seek, secure, and afford lifesaving care.”
