  18. The Center on Budget & Policy Priorities also highlighted that there is not enough time to implement what could be considered less cruel systems for #Medicaid #WorkRequirements. The center called for work requirements to be pulled, “but short of that, states need more time to ensure their policies, systems, & staffing plans are in place to minimize the number of eligible people whose #healthcare is taken away.”

  23. #Medicaid #WorkRequirements do not increase employment. Instead, the administrative burden of work requirements only serves to kick people off this governmental #HealthInsurance. Additionally, a majority of people on Medicaid, who are not on Supplemental Security Income, work full or part-time jobs. This underlines how rhetoric around work requirements is just false.

  28. #Trump’s New #Medicaid #WorkRequirements Are Here

    It’s just cruelty.

    On Friday, #Nebraska became the first state to enact Medicaid work requirements, mandatory for states with Medicaid expansion due to Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Notably, the state did it 7 months before the deadline.

    Now, ~70k adults below the age of 65 in Nebraska who have Medicaid through its expansion could risk having their #HealthInsurance ripped away from them.

  38. Instead, the argument relies on a series of misunderstandings [#disinformation] & non sequiturs to obscure the obvious fact that cutting #Medicaid would make #poor people sicker & more likely to die.

  39. The timing is even more remarkable, given that this wondrous solution has come along at precisely the moment when congressional #Republicans are desperate for budget savings to partially offset the costs of a regressive & fiscally irresponsible tax cut.

    Sadly [if unsurprisingly], a close reading of WSJ’s editorial reveals that no such miracle is in the offing.

  40. Last week, the WSJ editorial page published an editorial headlined “The Medicaid Scare Campaign.” The thesis is that the #Medicaid cuts would “improve healthcare by expanding private insurance options, which provide better access & health outcomes than Medicaid.”

    This would be, as they say, huge if true: The #GOP has found a way to give #LowIncome Americans better #healthcare while saving hundreds of billions in taxpayer money.

  41. #JoniErnst later doubled down on her
    comment on social media, attempting to equate concern that #Medicaid cuts could harm people with believing in the tooth fairy.

    Ofcls such as #RussVought & Ernst have not provided a detailed explanation of their blithe assurances. But there is one center of conservative thought that has attempted to defend these claims: the WSJ editorial page.

  42. As voluminous research literature shows, #WorkRequirements achieve savings by implementing burdensome paperwork obligations that mostly take #Medicaid from eligible beneficiaries, not 25-yr-old guys who prefer playing video games to getting a job.

  43. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that, by imposing #Medicaid #WorkRequirements, the bill would eventually increase the #uninsured population by at least 8.6M. At first, #Republicans tried to defend this outcome on the grounds that it would affect only lazy people who refuse to work. This is clearly untrue, however.

  44. Asked to comment on the findings of this story, an #EPA spox directed Reuters to a video stmnt by #Trump's new #EPA administrator, #LeeZeldin, who has outlined a strategy emphasizing #deregulation, saying the US can protect the #environment & promote economic growth at the same time [note the absence of concern for #PublicHealth & populations in #LowIncome communities].

"It's #DEI being treated like a four-letter word," said Linda Birnbaum, a retired toxicologist & fmr director of the National Institute of #Environmental #Health #Sciences who spent 19 years at the #EPA. "People who are already most impacted by high #pollution are going to be most hurt by the loosening of #regulations."
