What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

A bill, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, is expected to reduce federal Medicaid spending by more than $900 billion through 2034. This reduction is driven by provisions that include stricter Medicaid eligibility rules, such as work requirements and bi-annual checks, and a decrease in federal funding to states.
