The CBO estimates 13.7 million people will lose their health care if the GOP has their way

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) just released its report on the GOP budget plan to Congress. What they found is shocking, deep cuts to Americans' health care.

Here's what the CBO laid out: the GOP budget plan will knock 13.7 million people off health insurance rolls in exchange for huge tax giveaways to the wealthy.

House Republicans unveil Medicaid cuts

Don't buy the Republican spin. The disastrous budget resolution they're pushing would deliberately kick MILLIONS off of their Medicaid coverage — kids, seniors, folks in rural areas, people with disabilities. It's clear: families lose, billionaires win under the Republican MAGA scheme.

As the Ranking Member on the Senate Budget Committee, I will fight this budget proposal with every tool we have.

Onward,

Jeff
