My Friends I am Back and with A Purpose ! Yes I am going to Continue to Advocate to #ExpandMedicaidNow.  But Now this purpose gets Bigger. 

You see with Potential Changes to The Existing Healthcare Structure. I am Talking about Cuts to #Medicare #Medicaid and Maybe No More  of #TheACA.  (OBAMACARE) .These changes will Destroy Lives and Communities. 

How You May Ask ? Well let Me Explain It To You.

First When The #ACA  (Affordable Care Act) (OBAMACARE) came into existence it was created as a. Support Mechanism For #Medicaid and #Medicare.  This  a Funding Split among them to keep Costs Low. If You CUT OR GUT #TheACA Medicaid Medicare Costs go Up.

Second : Cuts to The #ACA leave potentially 30 Million People who are Insured Uninsured again.In addition to the 8 Million Uninsured in 19 States Who Refused to #ExpandMedicaidNow.   Thus Creating an #Impact of More Deaths. Because of Inability to afford Medical Care and Purchase Medicines. 

Third : Cuts to #Medicare and Part D And #Medicaid leave our Elderly and Disabled :  to suffer sick and in Poverty needlessly.  The proposed Voucher System Can Not Cover All or Enough of an Individual ‘s Medical Expenses. Thus Our Elderly populations Face Higher Death Risk.Because Not Only Will The Elderly Not afford access to A Doctor.  But Many Can not currently afford their Medicines Right Now. And With Vouchers its Impossible to Find Affordable Medicines.  .Thus again putting Our Elderly and Disabled at risk. Plus those suffering From Mental Health Issues as Well. 

Fourth : The #ACA was created to save money and by #ExpandMedicaidNow all would have healthcare.  Thus lowering expenses.  For both The Federal Government and Its Citizens. By Cutting it you not only ReCreate An Uninsured Population of 40 Million People.  But also Raise Costs

Fifth : Many Hospitals Will Close due to No Patient Payment.  No Medicare, Medicaid ,ACA , Or Hospital Charity .This is How Hospitals are Mostly Funded and Survive. By these 3 Programs. Thus Creating Unemployment For Medical Workers also. 

So You Ask What Can I Do to Stop. This ? Four  Steps : 

1. Get Involved in Your  Community By Calling, Visiting and Writing All Elected Officials.  At All Levels :  Local, State, and Federal Level.  As All will and Must be involved as this is A Huge Problem.  

2. Contact Media Print Radio TV. Write Letters to The Editor. 

3.Take To Social Media.  Facebook Twitter YouTube and Share Information on this. Use the # #ProtectOurCare when talking about it.  

4. Join and Support Coalitions on This.

So My Friends Its Not Just We The Uninsured who suffer Now.Myself and Amy Rodriguez  (Both Pictured Below ) Tirelessly Advocate on This. And Really We Don’t Want Anyone Else to Suffer  like We Do. If Changes are made to the current. System some of You may too. Or Someone You know. The Choice Is Yours America To #ProtectOurCare ! Or Do nothing and let people suffer.  

So Please All Have A Safe  Happy New Year From Me and All of Us at #ExpandMedicaidNow #Impact.  See You Next Year.

Because America We Need You to Help Us #ProtectOurCare in 2017 

Thank You 

God Bless

My Friends We are entering a New Era in Government and in Advocacy in America.  Things must change and soon. Too many are being left behind.I see this in South Florida where i Live BIG TIME

For Instance in Miami Dade County and In  Tbe City of Miami it is Very Obvious. You have a Mix of High Rise Condominium Buildings being built daily. While you have Poor Urban Neighborhoods Falling apart. Its called Rich and Poor Big Time. With a Shrinking Middle Class. 

So Like Our Nation South Florida is a Mirror of it. The Problems Of Poverty: Stagnant Wages, Poor or No Healthcare Options, A Hyper-Expensive Price Of Rents. Plus Violent Crime with our Youth These are The Problems plaquing The South Florida Community. And Ironically Our Nation too.

So Due to No Results From Washington D.C. ,Tallahassee Fl, and Our Local Government.  They All Sit, Talk and Fail to Act or Willfully Ignore The Problems.Yes Problems That Are Not Going Away Any Time Soon. Or Sit on Their hands playing petty political games like Governor Scott with Medicaid Expansion.  He refused to #ExpandMedicaidNow for 1 Million Uninsured in Fl.  One of Whom Genesis Rodriguez Desperately needs it. 

So In Comes A Small dedicated group. A Radio Personality and Performer Mr Franky Faze. A Tireless Warrior Mom and  Advocate Mariamee Amy Rodriguez – ( Mother of Genesis Rodriguez ) And A Disabled Advocate For Healthcare, Public Safety, Fair Wages, Civil and Human Rights on Social Media :  Myself Fred Christian Founder of #ExpandMedicaidNow #Impact on Facebook and Twitter. 

We are Tired of Build Baby Build by #MiamiDade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez. Who Favors The Rich. This mentality has spread to Washington D.C. We are sick of it. We are sick of seeing People Suffering and dying without Healthcare.  Our Workers work hard for little pay. The poor live in Sub Standard or Over Priced Housing. Our Youth dying by the gun. or leaving due to lack of Jobs.!  

Our Diverse Group came together to Solve problems.  We aim to be #Community First. And show how our problems : Can, Will ,and Must Be Solved And Soon  ! Thus the Name #FixMiami a Project Work Group aimed a Fixing Local, State, and Federal Government problems. Like Hospitals Closing due to No Funds. Or Companies leaving for cheaper workers .

So I Now Present to You Our New Forum #FixMiami Please Join Us in this endeavor on Social Media.  We at #ExpandMedicaidNow #Impact are partners in this. You will hear more on this in the Future. As We Aim to Save Our #Community From some bad ideas. And Help Heal the Hurting. By Being Voices For The Voiceless.  

Please Join Us America on this Journey. 

Join Us Miami Dade County City of Miami This is For You and For America.  

Thank You 

God Bless
