In addition to the draconian #Medicaid cuts in Project 2025, Russell Vought's Center for Renewing America also proposed $2.2T in #Medicaid cuts in its FY23 budget plan including fully repealing the ACA Medicaid expansion. I wrote about the plan last year: ccf.georgetown.edu/2023/02/27/cen…

Make no mistake -- these cuts are not just limited to Medicaid expansion group -- they will impact children, pregnant women, new moms, people with disabilities, seniors in nursing homes etc.

Adding to the overwhelming signals like Project 2025 that #Medicaid will be targeted for draconian cuts next year if there’s a second Trump term is this year’s House GOP budget resolution. My new Georgetown Center for Children and Families blog explains: ccf.georgetown.edu/2024/08/07/thi…

One of the smart, fiscally sound policies Catherine Rampell highlights is that Minnesota is moving to cover young children from 0-6 in Medicaid without any gaps in coverage. 11 states and DC are moving forward on similar approaches.

As more children go back to school, many of them will need to be reconnected to health coverage thru Medicaid + CHIP because of Medicaid unwinding losses -- especially in states with large declines. Tricia Brooks blog + links to a new toolkit.. ccf.georgetown.edu/2024/08/23/bac…

"Poor, disabled and otherwise disadvantaged Tennesseans should not require luck, perseverance, or zealous lawyering to receive healthcare benefits they are entitled to under the law,” the ruling states. 💯 #MedicaidMatters #CareCantWait

Here's my new blog elaborating on why #Medicaid would be a target for draconian cuts in order to offset the costs of making next year's expiring tax cuts permanent which is a top Trump/Congressional GOP priority: ccf.georgetown.edu/2024/09/04/gop…
