In January, we wrote about the Trump administration’s potential changes to Medicaid and who relies on its services. We focused on potential shifts in policy, budget cuts, and efforts to deregulate. In the following post we will discuss specific actions taken to cut Medicaid by federal and state lawmakers and what that means for the people who rely on its benefits.
DREAMers are undocumented immigrants who were brought to the United States as children and have grown up in the country. A new lawsuit threatens their access to health care.
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is a cornerstone of healthcare policy in the United States. Over the years it has undergone significant changes, from expanding Medicaid in many states to increased subsidies to reduce premium costs. As the healthcare landscape evolves under the second Trump administration, new policies, challenges, and potential repeals will continue to shape the ACA.
