House Republican Budget Resolution and its Impact on Medicaid
Democrats and Republicans are in disagreement over the House Republican budget resolution's impact on Medicaid, with Democrats claiming inevitable cuts and Republicans denying any specific mention of Medicaid in the bill. The resolution aims to cut $880 billion in spending over 10 years, primarily affecting Medicaid and Medicare. The bill still needs to pass the Senate and faces various legislative hurdles. Both parties have made speculative comments without concrete details on the specific cuts. President Trump has pledged not to cut Medicare or Social Security but has left room for reducing waste or fraud. The potential cuts to Medicaid could have significant impacts on hospitals, nursing homes, and health coverage for millions of Americans.
