“House Republicans’ tax bill would lead to nearly 11 million people losing health insurance, providing a key source of savings to help finance President Trump’s tax cuts, according to projections that nonpartisan congressional scorekeepers published Wednesday.

Another 5.1 million people would become uninsured from a combination of expiring Affordable Care Act subsidies and new ACA rules that Trump’s health department proposed, the Congressional Budget Office said. Those coverage losses are separate from the CBO’s official score of the tax bill.

Altogether, 16 million people could become uninsured over a decade, the same number who were at risk of losing their insurance when Republicans attempted to repeal the Affordable Care Act in 2017, CBO said.

The CBO projections give Democrats ammunition to attack Republicans for taking insurance from low-income voters to pay for tax cuts that disproportionately benefit the rich. Most Republicans say the bill only takes insurance from those without jobs who are able to work and that pregnant women, children, people with disabilities, and frail older adults will not be affected.”


“Most Republicans say the bill only takes insurance from those without jobs who are able to work and that pregnant women, children, people with disabilities, and frail older adults will not be affected.”

This is a lie.

For example, that an adult without children of his own in the home can work doesn’t mean he can afford health insurance; low-income working adults will lose Medicaid, and not all employers provide health insurance to employees.

‘Frail older adults’ will also lose Medicaid if they’re under 65 and not established disabled by Social Security. Adults with no children of their own in the home who are incapacitated with pending Social Security disability claims can wait years before approval.

Incapacitated adults who are unable to work will lose access to Medicaid.

Republicans are as dishonest as they are incapable of sound, responsible governance.

Nobody needs to lose their healthcare at all. Simply either buy your own plan, or get a job and participate in your employer's plan. What's wrong with you facediaper??

How many are illegals? How many are healthy adults gaming the system?

You mean 11 million illegals?
 
Gee a far left ( so called) news article writes some off the wall inflammatory article and we have the mentally ill falling all over themself trying to make the other party look bad.
We are almost 37 Trillion in debt. Democrats want to continue giving money away for two reasons.
1. Is they want the U.S. to fall and then they believe that it will somehow be made in some magical place where all their warped ideals will become reality.
2. They see no reason that everyone no matter how able bodied should be required to work, pay bills, or do anything normal adults are expected to do.
I do not much care for the Republican Party but at least they are somewhat more financially capable and want a country founded in some reality.
We need to stop handing out money to illegals and able bodied citizens.

You people are so clueless. These are not illegal aliens losing coverage. These are your local plumbers, electricians, who now can afford to buy their own plan, the misses doesn't have to work at Walmart anymore thanks to the ACA subsidies. These are the farmers, working the fields and purchasing a subsidized health insurance plan on the marketplace. These are the disabled children, the autistic children, the Big Beautiful Bill literally throws them to the street, leaving parents with no ability their child at home.

I mean, simple example, 60 year old couple. Wife stays home, mostly because she is taking care of her elderly parents. The husband works a 1099 for a Federal Express contractor. Knocks down about $85,000, he has no employer provided health insurance. Has a plan he got from the marketplace. Subsidized premium, costs him $6,900 a year. After the Big Beautiful Bill, same plan, $22,300 a year.

That is real numbers, these are real people. But the most insulting thing, absolutely appalling. Elderly couple on Medicare. Let's say these people are in the "slow go" phase of our end of life cycle. Salt of the Earth, SALT OF THE EARTH, worked in the mines, in the mills, in the factories, in the fields. Put food on your family's tables, clothes on their back, built the chair you sit in and the table you eat from. Keep your lights on.

Their annual income, $21,000 a year. Telling you, hosiery mills didn't pay shit. They are 80 years old. After the Big Beautiful Bill passes, $8,000 dollars in additional out-of-pocket expenses a year for this couple. SHAMEFULL. I mean this all comes from CBO scoring. And this is just one part of the Big Beautiful Bill. We are FUCKED if this puppy dog passes.

The ACA, "Obamacare" if you want to call it that. The greatest investment this government has made since the VA education benefits after WWII. In a sense, it really was a transfer of wealth. The drug manufacturers, they had to cough it up. Hospital groups, doctor conglomerates, they had to cough it up. I wish I could say insurers, but man, they have made out like bandits.

That symbolizes the big, beautiful bill. If you ain't got a unit on the backside, you are fucked. Best start watching reruns of Preppers. That money, that transfer of wealth in the other direction, it is like adding tension to the noose. Millions of dollars are going to be sucked from the disposable income of the masses. Already, entire communities are turning into ghost towns as this ill-founded, short term thinking, absolutely racist, mass deportation takes place.

Recession? LOL, I hope that is all we get. I mean we are headed for a full blown collapse if things don't change, and change damn fast. Can the Senate stand up, and I mean that on so many levels. God help Thom Tillis. But make no mistake, this Congress is embarrassing. Not a single member, either party, knows what it is like to walk amongst the people that make this country go.

So, tell us how a small shopkeeper, or a barista is going to afford private health insurance.

Your post reeks with casual cruelty.

I've been hearing for decades that Republicans would take seniors' social security away. We still have it. Democrats are all very much about terrorizing Americans into voting for them with constant lies. However, if able bodied people lose insurance because they won't work, then I don't really give a shit. And, subsidies is just another code word for adding more onto our national debt.
 
So, tell us how a small shopkeeper, or a barista is going to afford private health insurance.

Perhaps we are being told that after so many years of not living within our means we are feeling the limits of what the government can provide as it hurts the taxpayer more and more. When we talk resources for social programs, the only thing that Progs will do or say is that the rich do not pay. At the same time, they give nothing to the lower classes as in tax cuts. They have proven it over and over.

So explain exactly what programs democrats are willing to cut so that we do not keep adding to the national debt.
I am willing to bet that they not only want to keep adding but would be over the moon if we increased the amount we add to it each year

Trump told his cult that they were going to suffer.

Is that what they voted for.

Typical leftist useful idiot. Claims a government program(Obamacare) that covered 1/3 of the people it promised at four times the cost is a raging success.

It is not the government's job to provide health care to the populace. Get off of your butt and buy your own insurance.
