The rally is sponsored by Advocates for Reforming Medicaid Services (ARMS) and will be held at the Cabinet for Health and Family Services at 275 E. Main St. in Frankfort. Our focus is to publicize the terrible budget that was passed by the 2008 General Assembly and how that budget is going to impact human services. We simply cannot “tighten our belt” as there is no belt left to tighten. We want the Cabinet to tell us what the important issues are and then let us work with them on those issues. We need and want leadership from the Cabinet. Join us and hear the stories of how this budget is going to impact human services.
