TODAY: Senate Finance Republicans Unveil “Even Steeper” Medicaid Spending Cuts to Pay for Tax Cuts for the Wealthy
WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Republicans on the Senate Finance Committee released their portion of President Donald Trump’s so-called “Big, Beautiful Bill,” unveiling “even steeper cuts” to Medicaid than the House version of the bill. Despite claims from some Republican Senators that cuts to Medicaid are not on the table, Senate Finance Republicans are pushing forward with a major upheaval of Americans’ healthcare in order to pay for tax cuts for themselves, their wealthy donors, and major corporations.
We’re watching in real time as Senate Republicans line up to gut healthcare for millions of Americans in order to pay for tax cuts for themselves, their wealthy donors, and big businesses. If House Republicans’ version of the bill wasn’t already concerning enough, Senate Republicans are pushing through with likely steeper cuts to Americans healthcare. The truth of both the House and Senate versions is Americans will lose their healthcare and see their costs go up to pay for billionaire tax cuts, full stop.”
