NAMI’s six-month fight to defend mental health and substance use coverage is over and, together, we stand victorious.

A group of 10 governors from both parties wrote a letter to Senate leadership this week to call for bipartisan solutions that fix the insurance marketplace and do not cut Medicaid. NAMI supports these governors and their recommendations.

The Senate voted today to open debate on health reform by passing a Motion to Proceed by 51-50. This paves the way for the Senate to vote on a new health reform bill that will be cobbled together on the floor of the Senate. The future of mental health coverage for millions of people who live with mental illness is at stake again.

Raise your voice for mental health on June 29 and tell your Senators that America needs more mental health care, not less.

One in five Americans are affected by mental illness, and more than 50% do not receive treatment. The Senate health reform bill, the Better Care Reconciliation Act of 2017 (BCRA), will only make matters worse.

NAMI wrote a letter to the U.S. House leadership on March 23rd opposing The American Health Care Act (AHCA) of 2017. Read the letter here.
