Medicaid Cuts Spark Moral Debate in Congress | JQJO

House Republicans passed a bill with significant Medicaid cuts, defended by Rep. Mike Johnson as morally sound due to added work requirements. Johnson claims the bill targets fraud, but analyses project millions losing coverage by 2034, including nearly 200,000 Louisianans. The legislation also includes substantial tax cuts for the wealthy and restricts Medicaid access for undocumented immigrants and Planned Parenthood. Senate passage is uncertain, with some Republicans opposing the cuts.
