Rep. Gwen Moore, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing Wisconsin’s 4th district, recently took to social media to express her concerns about proposed changes to Medicaid. On March 18, 2025, she shared several tweets highlighting her stance on the issue and criticizing Republican colleagues for their approach.
In her first tweet of the day, Moore questioned her Republican colleagues’ willingness to risk children’s healthcare in Wisconsin by potentially cutting BadgerCare. She stated: “Today is #MedicaidDayOfAction — So again I want to ask my Republican colleagues why they’re willing to put thousands of Wisconsin’s children at risk of losing BadgerCare?” This tweet was posted at 14:42 UTC.
Later that day, at 18:43 UTC, Moore further elaborated on her views regarding Medicaid funding and tax cuts for the wealthy. She tweeted: “Republicans know exactly what they’re doing. Their math is no secret: they want to gut Medicaid to funnel billions into tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. Medicaid is a lifeline and not a line item to be slashed to make billionaires trillionaires.” Her message underscored her belief that Medicaid should remain an essential service rather than being compromised for financial gains elsewhere.
In a subsequent post at 23:48 UTC, Moore succinctly reaffirmed her position with a brief statement: ” I said what I said.” This final tweet emphasized her unwavering stance on the matter.
