ANCOR Joins Coalition Letter Supporting Workforce Measures in End-of-Year Legislation

Share this page

ANCOR joined a letter from the Disability and Aging Collaborative (DAC) to Congressional leaders urging the inclusion of workforce investments in the end-of-year legislative package that Congress is currently negotiating. The letter also asks Congress to include a permanent extension of the Medicaid Money Follows the Person Program (MFP) and Spousal Impoverishment Protections in the legislation, noting that these programs support home- and community-based services and are critical in ending the Medicaid institutional bias.

ANCOR joined more than 130 state and national organizations in signing the letter. For more, read the full letter.
