Medi-Cal, California’s Medicaid program, saves lives. It’s a lifeline that provides free or low-cost health coverage to over one-third of the state’s population — including children, pregnant individuals, seniors, and people with disabilities.
Cutting Medi-Cal funding would mean taking critical care away from residents who need it the most in every congressional district. Without access to health coverage, Californians will face impossible choices that put their health and economic security at risk while also driving up long-term costs for the state.
This table shows how many people in each congressional district rely on Medi-Cal, how many adults could lose coverage due to work requirements, and the level of Medi-Cal spending per district that fuels jobs and local economies.
