US EditionTreasury Secretary Criticizes Democratic Lawmakers Over Medicaid Policy Disagreements

- The bill mandates able-bodied adults prove employment, volunteering, or schooling to qualify, prompting bipartisan opposition and debate.
- Critics note Arkansas removed nearly 20,000 people from Medicaid without boosting employment, while Georgia spends $9 on overhead per $1 on care.

- The work requirements may cause millions to lose coverage, increase red tape, and risk deaths among those unable to access care.
