Republicans advance bill with steep cuts to Medicaid as part of Trump agenda

  • House Republicans advanced a bill in 2025 proposing large cuts to Medicaid and SNAP nationwide as part of a broader policy package.
  • The legislation aims to partially offset $3.7 trillion in tax cuts, particularly benefiting wealthy Americans, by reducing federal Medicaid funding and increasing states' costs.
  • The bill would impose work requirements, reduce Medicaid expansion match rates, and restrict funding to clinics performing abortions, potentially causing millions to lose coverage.
  • The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates 7.6 million people could lose health insurance and states like Nevada could lose $590 million in federal Medicaid funds over 10 years.
  • These proposals could shift costs to states, force budget cuts or tax increases, and disrupt access to care for low-income families and vulnerable populations.
