Summary
Republicans are considering cutting Medicaid funding, potentially stripping 600,000 people of healthcare, to fund Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown and extend the 2017 tax cuts, which mostly benefit the wealthy.
Proposals include introducing Medicaid work requirements, ending coverage for non-citizens, repealing Biden-era health tax credits, and scaling back the Affordable Care Act.
Extending Trump’s tax cuts would add $4.6 trillion to the deficit, with nearly half the benefits going to households earning $450,000 or more.
These measures target lower-income Americans while preserving tax breaks for the wealthy.
Aren’t a lot of poor Republican parents’ kids on Medicaid? Poverty doesn’t care about politics.
Leopards and faces, I guess.
Four more years of proving that it’s far easier to break things than it is to build or repair things.
@MicroWave yep anyone with a brain expected this to happen.
And guess what? Even before this, Trump has already signed an eo to RAISE drug prices!Awesome
