Idaho House Republicans Back Bill that Includes Major Cuts to Medicaid, SNAP
- House Republicans passed a budget bill in May 2025 that includes major cuts to Medicaid and SNAP nationwide.
- The bill introduces work requirements for certain Medicaid recipients aged 19 to 64 and ends enhanced Obamacare subsidies as part of federal spending reduction.
- Affected Medicaid recipients must work, volunteer, or attend school at least 80 hours monthly, with some exemptions allowed, while states will face increased SNAP costs.
- According to Congressional Budget Office projections, Medicaid coverage would be lost by 10.3 million individuals over a decade, resulting in an additional 7.6 million people lacking health insurance despite Republican assertions that the program would not experience significant reductions.
- The legislation signals the largest Medicaid reduction in U.S. history and raises concerns about reduced coverage and increased administrative burdens for vulnerable populations.
