Recent polling reveals a notable increase in Medicaid’s popularity, now with 83% of Americans expressing favorable views. This is up from 77% just a few months prior, particularly among Republicans, where three in four now support the program. The surge comes amidst growing awareness of proposed Medicaid cuts by Republicans, complicating their legislative efforts. Despite these challenges, public support for Medicaid remains strong, in stark contrast to the much less popular "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" currently under consideration in Congress. Medicaid serves 71 million low-income and disabled Americans, highlighting its vital role in the healthcare landscape.
