Opinion-based article by someone who has a clear agenda and is a little short on the facts. "Deep" Medicaid cuts are NOT being planned. A reduction in growth is CERTAINLY NOT a "deep cut." It is a reduction in increase of the program. By 2026, Medicaid spending would be about 24 percent less than what CBO projects under current law. "Current law" is the Obamacare law which calls for a large growth in Medicaid spending. Most of the reduction in spending is tied to estimates of lower enrollment, NOT cuts. More obfuscation and partial truths from the Demwits.
