'You could've reversed it, why didn't you?': Sen Johnson, Van Hollen clash over Medicaid cuts, taxes
Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) sharply criticized Republican-backed Medicaid reforms during the Senate Budget Committee hearing ‘Medicaid: The Reality.’ Van Hollen argued that proposed Medicaid cuts would reduce healthcare access for millions of Americans while shifting healthcare costs onto other families. His remarks drew a sharp response from Committee Chairman Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), leading to a heated clash over Medicaid spending, fraud, healthcare access, and the impact of the Republican-backed legislation.
