INDIANA– On Saturday, July 26, diverse Hoosiers from more than sixteen local organizations will hold events in cities and small towns across Indiana to demonstrate how federal cuts to essential health and food programs will impact our communities. Medicaid members, healthcare workers, faith, and community leaders will share their own experiences at events on Saturday to underscore the importance of these programs to Hoosiers of every age, race, and ability across the state.
For our part, the Indiana Rural Summit, along with Organizing Indiana and the Community Action Coalition, is coordinating a Motorcade for Medicaid.

This Saturday, we’re taking to the roads—motorcade style—to show solidarity and protect our hospitals across Indiana. These aren’t just highways and county roads; they’re the same routes we’ve all driven before:
• To visit loved ones in surgery
• To hold a friend’s hand in the ER
• To deliver new life into the world
• To sit vigil and say goodbye to a parent, elder, or partner
We drive these paths with all the emotions that come with them—fear, hope, worry, relief, even joy. This time, we’re driving them together, in solidarity, to make sure these hospitals remain open and our communities have the care they need.
Check out our route and join us wherever you can—drive the full path, meet us along the way, or show support from the roadside. Every hand, every car, every voice matters.
We’ll meet at local hospitals and gathering spots, then converge in Salem, Indiana for a press conference and solidarity celebration with patients, families, and caregivers who need to see their community stand with them. This is a “grow as you go” event:
• If you’re near a local starting/meeting point, drive with us.
• If you’re outside the route or can’t make it to Salem, create your own route or gather in your area and show support locally.
• Share your route, photos, and updates so we can connect all our efforts into one statewide wave of solidarity.
Together, we’re building a visible, rolling statement: our hospitals matter, our neighbors matter, and care can’t wait.
This schedule outlines the full route for the Motorcade for Medicaid event, starting at 9:00 AM. Participants can join for a single leg or the entire event. All routes end in Salem for a press conference at 4:00pm!
Things to bring: water, road snacks, a sack lunch, camp chairs, umbrella, and a cell phone/charger. Optional: dinner at a locally owned and authentic Mexican restaurant El Camino’s!
