Concern about proposed Medicaid cuts

Stephen F. Lynch expressed concern about proposed federal Medicaid cuts in President Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill.” He said the bill would cut $100 billion a year for 10 years, and warned that reductions could threaten district hospitals, which he said rely on Medicaid for about 30 to 35 percent of their funding. He also pointed to hospitals’ existing strain and limited capacity as reasons the cuts concern him.

Context: The passage records Lynch’s concern and warning but does not state how he would vote on the bill or identify a specific alternative policy.

In their own words

the biggest challenge we have right now, the one I worry about most, is actually Medicaid.
