House Republicans on the Energy and Commerce Committee this week unveiled a plan to cut more than $880 billion to pay for a significant portion of President Trump’s domestic agenda. After

WASHINGTON – House Republicans plan to enact work requirements and more frequent eligibility checks for Medicaid, according to a proposal released late on May 11 by a key GOP-led committee.

After months of incremental steps, the GOP’s megabill has reached the it’s-time-to-start-paying-close-attention-to-this stage.

Republicans and Democrats grew weary in the early hours of Wednesday morning on Capitol Hill as they slogged through at-times contentious debate over provisions in President Donald Trump’s sweeping tax and spending cuts package.

The proposed cuts would reduce spending by at least $715 billion by 2034 — making some moderate Republicans wary while conservatives argue they don’t go far enough.

The Missouri Republican's support is crucial but contingent on preserving Medicaid, and he wants to first see what House Republicans can muster through their thin majority.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) came down hard on his party for meddling with Medicaid and possibly requiring co-pays for Medicaid recipients seeking medical care. "It's reverse class warfare, is what it is," Hawley told CNN's Manu Raju Wednesday.

Republicans officially reached the hard part of the effort to pass a budget plan addressing several of President Donald Trump’s top priorities this week.In the House of Representatives, markups took place on Tuesday for two of the main parts of the “big beautiful bill” Trump wants Congress to pass as one massive package.
