Summary
House Republicans are considering $5.7 trillion in federal spending cuts over 10 years, including reductions to Medicaid, food assistance, and clean energy subsidies, according to a Politico report.
Proposed Medicaid changes, like ending Affordable Care Act expansions and introducing block grants, could leave millions uninsured.
Food aid cuts could impact tens of millions, while reduced clean energy subsidies risk job losses.
Democrats strongly oppose the proposals, citing harm to families and job sectors, while GOP leaders face internal challenges passing such measures with a narrow House majority.
Republicans war against the poor is the only thing that matters to them. How christlike.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Damn those pesky democrats for doing this to us! /s
Why? We pay for Medicaid. It’s not like this is from the general fund. So, what they want to do is steal that money you paid for Medicaid and pay for their other bullshit priorities like mass deportation or more tax cuts for rich people.
Big theft from the American Public on GOPs plans*
Fixed the title
Because everyone loves their United-CVS-Kaiser Healthcare, right?
you have just listed all 3 reasons I’m looking to become an immigrant
Ah yes. Denying me food and medical coverage will clearly help with my disability.
Make sure to give that money to the ultra wealthy as a bonus for destroying the planet
At this point I can only say “if each of us take a few with us before we go the world might end up better some day.”
Rest assured, they are also planning tax cuts.
Watch as Ruben “immediately betrays democrats” Gallego is all for $6 trillion in Medicaid cuts. Arizona just can’t catch a break.
Did something already happen with him that makes you think this would happen? I haven’t seen anything that negative about him since he was elected so I’d really appreciate you saying your rationale.
Ah I see. Thanks for the source! Fuck him.
Leopards are gonna get so fat.
The “Your Parents Have Gotten Old Enough, Haven’t They?” Act.
This is for Medicaid not Medicare.
- Medicaid = covers poor people
- Medicare = covers old people
So this is the “How can we fuck poor people even harder” act.
Most old people are also poor, checkmate!
And people on disability have Medicare and Medicaid so fuck them too
I always get those mixed up.
