House Republicans unveil $900B in spending cuts for Trump's 'big beautiful' bill, escalating messy Medicaid fight
Briefly

House Republicans unveiled a plan to cut approximately $900 billion in spending over ten years, primarily focused on Medicaid reforms and eliminating climate initiatives from the Inflation Reduction Act. The Energy and Commerce Committee outlined several measures, including a work requirement for able-bodied adults enrolled in Medicaid and reduced federal reimbursement rates for states with illegal immigrant enrollees. The proposal seeks to contribute to overall $1.5 trillion cuts needed to support President Trump's agenda, while simultaneously making some minor reforms to Medicare without significant cuts.
