On April 16, 2025, Espaillat urged the community to join him for the event. He stated, "Acompáñenos mañana a las 11 a.m. en WASHINGTON HEIGHTS para el Día de Acción 'Medicaid Importa'." He tagged several individuals and organizations, including @CnDelarosa, @AMDeLosSantos72, @MarkLevineNYC, @CMShaunAbreu, @1199SEIU, and @NYSNursingAssoc, and encouraged attendees to confirm their participation.
The following day, April 17, 2025, Espaillat reflected on the event's success, noting the involvement of several key locations. He tweeted, "Washington Heights Harlem The Bronx Today was the Medicaid Matters Day of Action across the district — and you showed up." He emphasized the collective commitment to safeguarding Medicaid for the many families relying on it.
