    Important to understand: The GOP bill stills cuts $800B from Medicaid coverage with massive consequences for a program reaching 70M people.https://twitter.com/citizencohn/status/885833521679540229 …

    Single biggest element in repeal is the Medicaid cuts. It's the one thing the Senate bill didn't change. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/new-senate-bill-medicaid-cut_us_5967cd86e4b03389bb161a1c …

        Also consider lifelong consequences of this coverage cutoff: Medicaid currently covers 37 million CHILDREN

        Many Veterans use Medicaid...didn't @realDonaldTrump say he loved and would protect Vets? Another of his bigly campaign promises broken.

        That is what the GOP wants no matter what the plan is called. Cut Medicaid. Heartless.

        How and why did GOP decide it wanted to de-fund/kill Medicaid? Thought they wanted to nuke the ACA (which I know they still intend).

        US total population 326,475.000. So almost 20% are on medicaid? How does the middle class (that pays for it) pull it off?
