Medicaid
There’s a reason Republicans are in such a rush to get Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” through Congress.
THE REPUBLICAN EFFORT TO slash Medicaid stalled when legislation cutting more than $625 billion from the program failed to get through a key House committee. GOP leaders said they hope to try again on Sunday night. That presumably means they are spending the weekend frantically negotiating in private, trying to secure votes from a handful of holdout Republicans — all in the hopes of keeping Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” of spending reductions and tax cuts moving through the House.
… the longer the debate goes on, the more indefensible those claims look. Every passing day gives analysts more time to publish damning information, like these analyses showing coverage losses by state and congressional district. And the more this information gets out, the easier it is for organizations and activists to press their case.- Jonathan Cohn in The Bulwark

Follow the Republican playbook to take away your Medicaid
Helps the rich and cuts aid to the poor
- Play ‘GOP Health Care Slaughterhouse’ with Your Own Rep — Talking Points Memo
- Medicaid serves people with lower incomes or who have a disability.
- Medicare focuses primarily on older people, no matter their income. Republicans are eyeing $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid.
- This would end coverage for as many as 20 million of the 72 million people on Medicaid — New Hampshire Bulletin
The GOP-led House scheme “helps the rich and cuts aid to the poor”. Republicans, who had been voted into office promising to help working-class voters, were now “teeing up cuts to programs that provide health care and food to the poor.” The plan “instructs the Energy and Commerce Committee, which oversees Medicaid and Medicare, to come up with at least $880 billion in cuts.” — WBUR
Republican scheme for American genocide
How long is a poor, disabled senior citizen with no health insurance likely to live when denied Medicaid? Isn’t this genocide in a different form? You decide.
Elon Musk is worth over $330,000,000,000
Musk donated $290,000,000 to Trump’s campaign.
Republicans led by Mike Johnson are eyeing $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid health care program for lower-income people.
To give rich Americans a $4.5 trillion tax cut , Trump will cut health care for the poor.
Take Away: Call your MAGA rep: Don’t cut Medicaid. Not on Sunday. Not at night. Not never!
