We’re sick ofpremium hikes.Fix health care now.
We’re building a coast-to-coast movement of patients, providers, and families — sharing real stories and demanding action. Join us.
About the campaign
Sick Of It! Fix Health Care Now is channeling the frustration of millions of Americans across parties who are fed up with a health care system wrecked by Donald Trump and Republicans to fund tax breaks for billionaires.
We’re bringing the public’s top issue directly to lawmakers to make health care more affordable, accessible, and equitable in 2027 and beyond.
In our largest grassroots campaign to date, Protect Our Care is working alongside state and national partners to mobilize communities across the country through events, town halls, and a coast-to-coast bus tour this fall, lifting up patient stories and holding lawmakers responsible for devastating funding cuts.

On the road
Out in the streets.
Sick Of It! is taking the fight across the country. Here's what it looks like on the ground.
By the numbers
The cost of their choice.
Trump and Republicans made these cuts to fund tax breaks for billionaires. No corner of the country is spared.
This didn't just happen
They made a choice. You’re paying for it.
Trump & Republicans
- Cut $1 trillion from your care to fund tax breaks for billionaires
- Refused to face the people they hurt
- Protected drug-company and insurance-industry profits
You
- Choosing between filling your prescriptions and paying rent
- Facing skyrocketing premiums, or losing coverage altogether
- Watching hospitals in your community cut back and shut down
This is the cost
Premiums climbing.
Coverage gutted.
Families choosing between prescriptions and rent.
Faces of the GOP health care crisis
The real people Trump and Republicans refuse to face.

What we're fighting for
We’re angry.
And we have a plan.
Protect Our Care is calling for lawmakers to act on the commonsense solutions Americans are asking for.
Lower premium costs
Restore the Affordable Care Act tax credits Republicans ripped away — and stop premiums from skyrocketing for millions of families.
Reverse the Medicaid cuts
Reverse Republicans' Medicaid cuts that hurt children, seniors, people with disabilities, and families.
Lower prescription drug costs
Expand Medicare's power to negotiate lower prices for more drugs and extend those lower prices to all Americans with insurance. Penalize drug companies that raise prices faster than inflation, and protect patients by extending the annual $2,000 out-of-pocket cap and the $35 insulin co-pay cap to people with private coverage.
And more policies to make health care affordable, available, and equitable.
The campaign
We’re on the move.
Working alongside state and national partners, we're mobilizing communities from coast to coast. Here's what that looks like on the ground.
Partnerships
With ally organizations in battleground and target states.
Nationwide kickoff events
Demanding action to lower costs and protect care.
Storytelling campaigns & tours
Hundreds of real stories from patients, families, and providers.
Paid advertising
Television, digital, radio, and social.
Reports & rapid response
State-by-state fact sheets documenting the harm of the cuts.
A coast-to-coast bus tour
Bringing the campaign to communities hit by rising costs and coverage losses.
Community-driven in-state events
AK · AZ · CA · CO · GA · IA · MI · NC · NH · NY · OH · PA · VA · WI
Plus empty-chair town halls and petition drop-offs.
Proud to stand with our coalition
