Farright senator aligns with Dems and proposes bill to block massive MAGA cut
"Far-right Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) vehemently opposes a key component of President Donald Trump and the House GOP's budget proposal and has introduced legislation to prevent it from coming to pass.
"Hawley says he filed an amendment barring cuts to Medicaid," reported Igor Bobic of the Huffington Post. "Adds he’s tempted to vote for similar Dem amendments."
Hawley has already spoken out in opposition to the idea of cuts to Medicaid, the massive federal-state partnership that provides public health insurance to lower-income Americans and currently covers around 80 million people, including the Children's Health Insurance Program. It echoes the position of far-right former Trump strategist Steve Bannon, who has noted that Medicaid now covers millions of Trump supporters who would then be facing ruin."
