Nearly 12 million Americans to lose health coverage under Trump’s budget bill, CBO warns

Wait 5 sec.

A Republican-backed budget bill, supported by President Trump, is projected to strip health insurance from nearly 12 million Americans by 2034, according to the CBO. The bill, which passed the Senate narrowly, enacts significant cuts to Medicaid and scales back the Affordable Care Act. These changes would disproportionately affect low-income families and those in the South and West.
