Hawley, Trump Say No Cuts to Medicaid. Their party’s bill would gut millions of Americans’ Medicaid.
WASHINGTON, DC – Yesterday, Senator Josh Hawley promised again not to cut Medicaid, even saying President Trump promises that as well.
That all, despite the fact that House Republicans signed off on the largest cuts to Medicaid in history – a bill Trump has endorsed already.
Let’s see if Senator Hawley, President Trump, and the other Republican Senators who’ve shunned Medicaid cuts practice what they preach. It’s that simple: if they are a ‘no’ on Medicaid cuts, then they can’t support any version of the current reconciliation bill that slashes healthcare for millions of Americans.”

Many of the most vocal opponents of Medicaid cuts also stand to benefit financially from the Trump tax scam. For example, according to Accountable.US’ Cash in Congress project, Hawley could personally benefit from passing the package.
