Recent federal budget laws enacted during the Trump administration included major proposals to cut federal Medicaid funding and revise the program. For example, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” signed in 2025, is estimated to trim more than $1 trillion in federal Medicaid expenditures over 10 years, adding policies like work requirements and higher cost-sharing that could potentially decrease access and funding for some recipients. These changes are poised to transfer greater financial responsibility to states and may restrict the growth of federal support for Medicaid, even as the program continues to assist tens of millions of Americans.
