Today, Democrats are highlighting that the bill is not just unpopular from some liberal or centrist perspective, but that it is fundamentally flawed, some say immoral, and thus they say this is still a chance, the delay in the House, for people to come to their senses. Don't tell me you give a about the middle class when all you're doing is on the middle class. Vice President said these cuts are immaterial. This bill is a deal with the devil. Mitch McConnell says people will get over it. There's a special p ...

Welcome to Meet the Press Now. I'm Kelly O'Donnell in Washington, where it's all hands on deck as the president and House Speaker Mike Johnson try to deliver the votes to get his signature domestic legislation passed. Right now, action on the House floor is stalled.We are still waiting on this current vote to get to another vote to tee up the big vote on final passage. Bottom line here, the delay suggests leadership does not think it has enough support to pass the bill right now. It comes after a day of fur ...

Experts from both red and blue states warned the damage from the deep cuts to Medicaid in President Trump's spending bill could extend far beyond rural hospitals, impacting vital services like preventative care, food programs, and forcing essential rural clinics to shut down, putting lives at risk.

Healthcare Policy & Financial Impact - The proposed bill is viewed as a betrayal of working Americans, particularly impacting the Bronx [2] - The Bronx is expected to be severely affected by a $1 trillion cut to Medicaid and children's healthcare, potentially destabilizing healthcare providers and hospitals [3][9] - The Congressman states his district has a high Medicaid enrollment rate of 67% [3] - Over 70% of children, over 80% of nursing home residents, and over 90% of baby deliveries in the district are covered by Medicaid [4] - Republicans anticipate revenue from cost-cutting measures will be offset by higher interest payments on the debt [6] - Work requirements for Medicaid eligibility are expected to create bureaucratic hurdles, potentially causing people to lose healthcare access, as seen in Arkansas where 18,000 people lost healthcare [7] Political Implications - The Republican reconciliation bill is considered bad policy and bad politics, potentially causing 12 million people to lose healthcare [8][9] - The Congressman believes congressional Republicans lack backbone and integrity, acting as a cult of personality loyal to Donald Trump [19][20] - A politician in New York City turned out 200,000 voters, with voters ages 18 to 44 accounting for 50% of the electorate, marking the highest turnout since 1989 [14]

The Medicaid cuts in President Trump's bill will hurt the very Americans who propelled him into office. Those in rural areas in red states will be among the hardest hit, @lisamjarvis says (via @opinion) https://t.co/lUXoqXFGrL ...
