9 States Poised To End Coverage For Millions If Trump Cuts Medicaid Funding. CBSNews.

With Donald Trump's return to the White House and Republicans taking full control of Congress in 2025, the Affordable Care Act's Medicaid expansion is back on the chopping block.

More than 3 million adults in nine states would be at immediate risk of losing their health coverage should the GOP reduce the extra federal Medicaid funding that's enabled states to widen eligibility, according to KFF, a health information nonprofit that includes KFF Health News, and the Georgetown University Center… read more

Losing one’s healthcare (and consequently one’s health) due to politics is very personal. It really is impossible to separate to two. Please don’t be hard on folks who are deeply concerned about the looming crisis that has been promised. (Trump has made no secret of wanting to destroy the ACA for years.) If he doesn’t succeed, it will be because millions of Americans put enough pressure on their representatives to stop him. I think the original post just serves as a reminder that we need to stay vigilant because so many lives are at stake. Very personal.

This is a Healthcare support sight. Healthcare concerns should be posted! I ask for all those who supported for the orange monster to be silent unless you can contribute positive information to help support our group with important Medical inquiries. No person should have to worry about Cancer and treatment. If we can help others get through treatment as well as Medical coverage, it's not fear mongering. It is called being human! Period end!

@A MyBCTeam Member - But nothing in this is about hate or other issues. This is about healthcare, an issue critical to all of us in this forum. What is there about this that you think is false info?

In my opinion on this subject yes we do not want to have political debates on this site but unfortunately when it comes to peoples healthcare its better to be informed than not to. The healthcare environment is going to change like it or not. I might be shunned,scolded etc from some on this site but at least I'm honest on my feelings about this. Some people can't even afford the premiums that the affordable care act has. Some people don't even have health insurance because of the premiums or there in the middle range of income. They make to much for medicaid but they don't make enough to afford the health insurance premiums to have health insurance outside of the private sector of getting health insurance. Also companies that do cover their employees are having trouble getting coverage or premium rates that they can afford and the employees can afford. A friend of mine has already had to change her insurance coverage twice because of the premium she would have paid. It's not only a political issue it is also a health issue. As for Sue 10 thank you very much for bringing up this topic and don't be afraid to state your views and to wake up people. Your info is very informative. Love and prayers and hugs to you.
