Speaker Johnson Launches Sales Mission as ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ Hits the Senate
- President Donald Trump's key domestic policy legislation passed the House in May 2025 and is now awaiting consideration by the Senate in Washington.
- Republicans proposed this legislation aiming to reduce Medicaid coverage by introducing new work requirements and funding cuts tied to the health program expansions under the ACA, while some critics warn it could lead to millions losing access to care.
- The bill would impose copayments, shorten ACA enrollment periods, and potentially cause millions to lose Medicaid and marketplace coverage, with nearly 7 million Medicaid expansion enrollees at risk.
- The Congressional Budget Office projects that the bill could result in almost 9 million additional individuals lacking health insurance by 2034, increasing to about 14 million if enhanced premium subsidies for Obamacare plans are not extended, while critics have dubbed it 'Obamacare Repeal Lite.'
- Opponents warn the bill threatens vulnerable populations and rural hospitals, while some Senate Republicans express concerns, foreshadowing likely amendments before final passage.
