Report: Big Cuts To Medicaid Coming In Trump Budget This Week

Report: Big Cuts To Medicaid Coming In Trump Budget This Week
Trump’s budget proposal is set to be unveiled on Tuesday.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s budget proposal, set to be unveiled on Tuesday, will include cuts to Medicaid and propose changes to other assistance programs for low-income citizens, the Washington Post reported on Sunday.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Trump’s proposal follows on a Republican healthcare bill that passed the U.S. House of Representatives in early May that seeks to overhaul the national healthcare system and cut more than $800 billion over the next 10 years from Medicaid, the government health insurance program for the poor and disabled.

They're so worried about minorities getting this type of assistance, that they've voted for these clowns, that are going to cut it from them too.
