Applaud the AGs Protecting Privacy and Immigrant Rights

California Attorney General Rob Bonta and 19 other state attorneys general just filed a powerful new lawsuit to stop the Trump administration from using Medicaid data to target immigrants — and it’s a big deal.

This coalition is standing up to a dangerous data grab that violates patient privacy, sows fear, and undermines public trust in our healthcare system. The Trump administration’s attempt to use confidential medical information for immigration enforcement isn’t just unethical — it’s likely illegal.

These Democratic leaders are sending a clear message: health care is a human right, and no one should be afraid to access it. By taking this fight to court, they’re defending the rights of millions, including immigrants, LGBTQ+ patients, and families who depend on Medicaid for vital care.

Add your name to applaud these attorneys general for protecting health privacy, challenging abuse of power, and standing up for dignity and justice for all.
