On July 4, President Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act into law. SCDAA shares the concerns of many in our SCD community regarding the impact that this act will have on the Medicaid program, access to care and health care overall for sickle cell warriors. We are in the process of carefully analyzing the bill to fully understand its effects and develop guidance for warriors, providers, caregivers and families moving forward. We will keep you updated in the next few weeks with more information and proposed next steps.

SCDAA will continue to advocate on both the federal and state levels as provisions of the law are implemented. Thanks to the many of you who engaged in advocacy on the bill.  We are a resilient community and our work must continue.
