COMING SOON: Vulnerable House Republicans to Advance Largest Cut to Medicaid in American History

This week, the increasingly vulnerable, so-called moderate House Republicans are poised to advance the largest cut to Medicaid in American history in order to fund trillions in tax breaks for billionaires.

Just this morning, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise admitted that House Republicans will cave to the demands of far-right extremists like Chip Roy and move as quickly as possible to implement their cruel cuts to Americans’ health care.

According to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, nearly 14 million Americans will be kicked off their health insurance if House Republicans get their way.

Don’t just take our word for it — Senator Josh Hawley himself warned that the House Republican version of the GOP Tax Scam would crush Medicaid access and destroy regional hospitals, especially in rural communities.

DCCC Spokesperson Justin Chermol:
“Watch what Republicans do — not what they say. For months, the so-called reasonable House Republicans have lied, claiming they wouldn’t touch Medicaid. Now, they’re all falling in line to gut Medicaid and affordable health care just to give tax breaks to the rich and shameless. Millions will suffer because of these extremists.”
