Donald Trump and his allies are considering major cuts to Medicaid and food stamps to address budget deficits related to tax cuts for the wealthy, according to The Washington Post. Trump’s advisers are discussing federal assistance program overhauls with Republicans in Congress to extend the 2017 tax cuts, as reported by The Washington Post.
These ideas include new work requirements and spending caps, but concerns exist about the political impact on low-income Americans who rely on these services, as noted by the Post.
