New bill working its way through the Ohio Statehouse would revoke state grants and suspend #Medicaid funding for Ohio hospitals that don’t cooperate with ICE agents making arrests, interviewing individuals, or collecting evidence.

Go get 'em Bernie! 👏🏼
25% of Mike Johnson's constituents under 65 are on #medicaid, and 20% of households are on #SNAP according to the article in the link.
I'm sure Bernie will have LOTS to talk about. And however red it is there, Republicans have been showing up to Bernie's events in other places!
Medicaid changes coupled with expiring ACA Marketplace premium tax credits could mean ~16 million more people without health insurance by 2034.

🚨"The Big Beautiful Bill kicks women off Medicaid if they don't return to work 60 days after birth (~8 weeks).
There's no exception to the work requirement in the bill for caring for young children. Medicaid covers 41% of US births, the party of 'family values' hates families."

Peter Lynch challenges Rep. Andy Barr's defense of the "One Big, Beautiful Bill Act of 2025," arguing it could endanger Kentucky’s financial health. Lynch warns it may add $2.4 trillion to national debt, risking essential federal support for food assistance and Medicaid for countless residents. This could force tax hikes or aid cuts, benefiting wealthy donors instead of constituents.

Praising both authors: their insights enrich the conversation on critical issues.
While the bill would be a boon to wealthy Americans, it would scale back resources for the nation's poorest households, the nonpartisan CBO warned in a recent letter to lawmakers.

"polls will get different results depending on how questions are framed, but the pattern is clear: extending the 2017 tax cuts gets a middling response, and cutting #Medicaid and #SNAP is about the worst thing you can suggest to voters."

John Thune's leadership faces friction as Senate Republicans push Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act before the Fourth of July. Resistance from conservatives, particularly Josh Hawley, centers on Medicaid changes seen as harmful to rural hospitals. While GOP leaders press on, they lack the votes needed for passage, with some calling for deeper cuts and a pause for clarity. Explore the full complexities of this political maneuvering in the article.

Sometimes I feel like saying, "They voted for this! This is their doing." But then I realize that there really is no point to unnecessary cruelty, undue suffering and preventable hardship. Where are we as a society if we forego our empathy and social responsibility?

Imagine a city with no #hospitals, and you get a taste of what #Republicans' "reforms" to #Medicaid could bring. https://reader.inquirer.com/infinity/article_popover_share.aspx?guid=f87a400f-f4ed-452d-a73f-6a95b8985b51&share=true&appcode=PHLINQ
What is the #providertax?
How the #Senate’s proposed #Medicaid cuts could deepen the #rural #hospital crisis
The Republican #Medicaid cuts would be disastrous for rural hospitals, yes, but ALL hospitals will be more crowded/burdened & at risk of collapse if 100s of closures occur, as is likely.
Senate cuts to the provider tax, a way for states to get more fed funding for their MDCD prgms, along with the House cuts that've been analyzed as leading to at least 11M fewer ppl on the MDCD rolls. The entire HC provider NET would come under heavy strain -possibly collapse.
