Republicans Call Medicaid Rife with Fraudsters. This Man Sees No Choice but to Break the Rules.

UNITED STATES, JUL 23 – New federal rules signed by Trump will impose work reporting and income limits that may force low-income workers with chronic conditions to reduce hours or lose Medicaid, affecting over 70 million recipients.

  • On July 4, 2025, President Donald Trump signed the budget bill into law, backed by Michigan Republicans and cutting $1 trillion from Medicaid over a decade.
  • The legislation imposes new work requirements and red tape, the CBO estimated adds $4 trillion to the debt, and it expands tax credits favoring higher-income households.
  • A state report warned that rural hospitals may downsize or close, threatening up to 30,000 health care jobs statewide, and state officials project nearly 200,000 Michiganders could lose coverage.
  • Affected rural communities face Medicaid cuts that experts say will worsen mental health disparities, forcing families to pay out-of-pocket and travel farther, Bennett said.
  • One analysis found the cuts next year would imperil 380 rural hospitals, the CBO projected 7.8 million fewer insured by 2034, and the coming months will test voter response.
