David Valadao (R-Calif.), 15 other vulnerable Republicans sent a letter to Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) and House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) saying they support the Medicaid reforms in the House version of the legislation, but the Senate Finance Committee proposal went too far.&nbs...

Dr. Mehmet Oz, the celebrity doctor who oversees Medicaid and Medicare for the Trump administration, welcomes the move by a trio of blue states — California, Illinois and Minnesota — to freeze or reduce health care benefits for undocumented migrants.

Four-and-a-half months into the second Trump administration, Republicans have achieved next to nothing legislatively, despite its total control of Washington.
Sure, President Trump has issued a slew of executive orders, but all of them will be repealed the moment a Democrat wins the White House. Laws are what really matter and stand the test of time. And despite endless talk a...

Millions Would Lose Their Obamacare Coverage Under Trump’s Bill
Though Republicans are not explicitly trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act, a series of small, technical changes would substantially reduce enrollment and increase the cost of coverage.
