WASHINGTON – House Republicans plan to enact work requirements and more frequent eligibility checks for Medicaid, according to a proposal released late on May 11 by a key GOP-led committee.

This bill is not going to become law in its current form, not least because President Trump won’t sign it,” Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) told CNN Wednesday.

Democrats who warned taking $625 billion out of Medicaid would harm providers and patients attracted no Republican support for amendments to soften the bill.

The House Energy and Commerce Committee voted Wednesday to advance Republican plans to cut federal funding for Medicaid, the US health insurance program for low-income and disabled people.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) came down hard on his party for meddling with Medicaid and possibly requiring co-pays for Medicaid recipients seeking medical care. "It's reverse class warfare, is what it is," Hawley told CNN's Manu Raju Wednesday.
