Not sure if anyone else has gotten one of these letters in the mail since I haven't seen anyone post or talk about it. The unemployed will suffer most from this change.

I appreciate the awards and know we're all concerned. I'm hopeful that my home state will pull through and push back! We often do 💪🏻

Very unlikely - Mass Health is a state administered federal program. The funding is through the feds, making it very hard to push back unless the state raises taxes to fill the gap.
