Shocker! Democrats have been proper about GOP plan to destroy Medicaid

Shocker! Democrats have been proper about GOP plan to destroy Medicaid
SHARE

A brand new report from the nonpartisan Congressional Finances Workplace launched on Wednesday proves that Republicans have been mendacity after they downplayed the impact that the Home’s funds blueprint would have on Medicaid.

Republicans have been claiming that their funds—which requires the Home Vitality and Commerce Committee to chop $880 billion as a way to partly pay for the tax cuts that overwhelmingly profit the wealthiest taxpayers—wouldn’t goal Medicaid. 

Calling their bluff, Democrats on the Home Finances Committee requested the CBO to find out the breakdown of funding the Home Vitality and Commerce Committee oversees.

And certainly, the CBO report decided that—excluding Medicare, which Trump and Republicans would not contact—Medicaid accounts for 93% of the funding the committee oversees. Meaning as a way to discover $880 billion in cuts, the overwhelming majority of that would want to return from Medicaid (or Medicare).


Brendan Boyle, the highest Democrat on the Home Finances Committee

“I keep hearing Republicans claim their budget doesn’t cut Medicaid. We all know that’s a lie — so I asked the nonpartisan CBO to look into it,” Brendan Boyle of Pennsylvania, the highest Democrat on the Home Finances Committee, wrote in a submit on X. “Their analysis confirms it: the Republican budget delivers the largest Medicaid cuts in history to pay for giveaways to billionaires.”

Reducing Medicaid—which offers medical insurance to 72 million low-income Individuals—is deeply unpopular.

A Civiqs ballot performed for Day by day Kos from Feb. 28 to March 3 discovered that 63% of registered voters oppose chopping Medicaid and meals stamps—one other social security internet program that the Republican-passed funds blueprint can be anticipated to chop. The ballot discovered that each demographic group sampled opposes chopping Medicaid and meals stamps—apart from Republican voters.

The truth that Republicans need to slash Medicaid and meals help to pay for Trump’s tax cuts has led to backlash from voters, who’re displaying up at Republican city halls to voice their anger.

The city halls have been so ugly for Republicans that GOP leaders have ordered their members to cease holding in-person occasions in order that they can’t be dressed down by their constituents.

After all, the funds blueprint Republicans handed will not be remaining. The Home Vitality and Commerce Committee now has to put out the specifics of what they may minimize to realize the $880 billion discount. And provided that we now know the cuts must come largely from Medicaid (or Medicare), it’s unclear whether or not Home Republicans can cobble collectively help from their weak members to get these cuts handed.

Nonetheless, all however one Republican lawmaker voted for the Republican funds blueprint. And Democrats are doubtless to make use of that truth in adverts within the 2026 midterms.

“This letter from CBO confirms what we’ve been saying all along: the math doesn’t work without devastating Medicaid cuts,” Democratic Rep. Frank Pallone of New Jersey stated in a press release. “Republicans know their spin is a lie, and the truth is they have no problem taking health care away from millions of Americans so that the rich can get richer and pay less in taxes than they already do.”
