Most Americans, including those who voted for President Trump in November, do not want to cut Medic AID Dad funds, according to KFF Voting from Published on Friday.
Most than 80 percent of adults living in Democrats, Republicans, Independence, Trump voters and rural areas said that Medic AID funds should either increase or keep the same.
These findings show the potential political risk facing the Republican of the Congress as they determine how much Deep Deep is to cut the social safety net for paying for most Trump’s agenda.
According to the polls, support for Medic AID Cut in Conservatives was significantly lower; Only 33 percent of self-wolves Republicans and Percent 35 percent of Trump voters said they support the reduction of medical AIDD costs.
Medic AID Cut will hit the rural communities the most, and 77 percent of rural residents want to raise or keep Medicaid funds in the polls. Two -thirds of the rural Republicans also express the same emotions.
While many Republican MLAs, Trump and Alon Musk have said that any change in Medic AID D will focus on roots of fraud and waste, critics say any major savings will require a reduction in costs and benefits.
“I am ready to say that Medic AID is with social security and Medicare that is not on the list,” said KFF President and CEO Drew Altman in a statement. “It’s a real change since the beginning of the program, and the Republicans are getting caught together in Vashington Shington.”
This has been voted because the House Republicans have forwarded the budget resolution, which has at least the TR trillion dollars in reducing costs.
Under the resolution, the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which monitors Medic AID, has been assigned to identify at least $ 80 80 billion in programs under its jurisdiction. Congress Budget Office Fisse on Wednesday issued a report that such savings were not received without Medic AID or Medicare.
There is a change in state provider taxes in the floating possibilities, which reduces the federal government’s share and functioning requirements at the costs for Medic AIDD expansion states.
Work requirements are probably the least politically dangerous, but as a single policy they will not come close to the cost -saving target Republican set.
About 5 per cent of adults said they were in favor of adding work requirements to the Medic AID, though the figure was cut in half when respondents were informed that most beneficiaries already worked and many would lose coverage due to the challenges of paperwork.
Although the study has shown that most of the working adults on Medic AID D are already working, 6 out of 10 adults believe that most people in the program are unemployed. Half, 60 percent of the Democrats, and three-fourths of Republicans and Trump voters said that most medical AID beneficiaries did not know that the beneficiaries were employed.
The survey was conducted on February 18-25 and by telephone in the national representative sample of 1,322 US adults. The error margin plus or subtraction for the full sample is 3 percent points.
