In May 2017, Donald Trump proposed 4.1 trillion dollars in budget cuts with a large portion of those cuts going to Medicaid and Medicare.<\/p>\n

One of the biggest issues facing Medicaid is cuts to tax increases that expand coverage to individuals who rely on the program. According to the New York Times<\/a>, these cuts would not only impact one in five Americans who rely on Medicaid for health insurance, but two-thirds of the elderly population who live in nursing homes and receive subsidies from Medicaid.<\/p>\n

In addition to cuts to Medicaid, NYT<\/a> also reports that President Trump’s Health Care Act is projected to cut more than $58 billion from Medicare, which older Americans rely on for things like hospital care, nursing homes, and home care.<\/p>\n

While the official Health Care bill still has not been approved by the senate, President Trump still expects to repeal The Affordable Care Act.<\/p>\n
