And if/when it happens what will the date be applied? Nov., 2025?

*On edit, I'd like to thank everyone who has responded to my post at this time. It helps a lot! I'm very, very worried and afraid.

These guys like to push drastic things to hide other things and to make them look good when they "save it". But the expanded medicaid is another story.

Another poster upthread mentioned Medicaid expansion, and I can't forget how much the nazis love making rules that people on Medicaid must either work or volunteer work in exchange for it.

Rescinding the ACA regulations and subsides is on the P2025 hit list.
Gutting HHS while trying to grab its funds, with or without congressional
consent, is a plausible game plan, however unlawful.
