First they decided to strip nursing of its “professional” designation.

Now they’re removing a requirement that ensured nursing homes receiving Medicare or Medicaid funding had an RN available 24/7.

This regime doesn’t care about the elderly & disabled.

We can debate tax policy. We can debate spending priorities. But protecting the elderly should not be a debate at all.
