Sen. Bernie Sanders: Trump's budget bill cuts to Medicaid "is a death sentence" for Americans - The Weekend: Primetime



The Republican-led Senate is working toward a July 4th deadline to pass President Trump’s budget bill, which in part proposes $1T in cuts to Medicaid and is getting zero support across party lines. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) joins “The Weekend: Primetime” to discuss why he has called the bill a “horrific” piece of legislation and weighs in on Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) announcing he will not run for reelection after voting against advancing Trump’s bill. - Aired on 06/29/2025.
