TrumpCare By Another Name: “Graham-Cassidy”

Trump and the Senate Republicans are making one last push on TrumpCare—a bill known as “Graham-Cassidy”—and it should be taken seriously.

1. Republicans only have until Sept. 30 to get this done.


3. Graham-Cassidy is strikingly similar to earlier TrumpCare bills. It destroys Medicaid as we know it by transforming the funding for the program into a capped system.

4. Graham-Cassidy contains deep cuts to Medicaid. Limiting how much federal money states have to spend on Medicaid limits coverage, access, and states’ options when more people need coverage.



7. Cuts the Federal Money Given to States. The proposal would take all of the money going out the door to help people afford and access insurance and bundle it into one “block grant.” This “block grant” includes money for the Medicaid expansion and marketplace subsidies.This also deeply cuts the total amount of money. All the funding ends in 2027. Starting that year, states would receive exactly zero dollars in their already slim block grants.
