GOP senators praise big, beautiful bill work requirement for Medicaid, while Dems predict doom

While Democrats expect major problems in a item within a “big and beautiful bill” adding a work condition for adults to be qualified to obtain a mandate, Republican Senate members are praising the condition, saying: “We have to return to work.”

The ruling requires non -embodied adults who have no children between the ages of 18 and 64 years to work at least 80 hours a month to be eligible for Medicaid’s advantages. Individuals can also meet the condition by participating in community service, going to school, or engaging in a work program.

“We have people in the homeland now harvesting wheat that works 20 hours a day,” Senator Roger Marshall, R. Kan, told Fox News Digital. ))

“Seven million healthy American men there at work age are not working now,” Marshall continued. “We encountered seven million open jobs as well. I think I want to do everything I can to help these seven million men find a job. Whether it is through colleges of education or society, and technical colleges, I think there are a lot of opportunities there.”

Senator Bill Hajari, Tin, said.

“It is surprising that the Democrats are trying to make this argument,” he said. “I do not think that taxpayers should put the bill at all for bodily citizens. Certainly, no citizens should get this.”

“We need to stimulate work,” Hajar went. “Certainly, you don’t want to stimulate a burden on taxpayers.”

“We must take care of the people who need to take care of them, and it is unfortunate that you have a lot of independent downloads in this country,” said Senator Tommy Tobreville, RA.

Tuberville claimed that many of those who considered them as independent “come from the younger ranks because they grew up, they got all these student loans, obtained a certificate that did not deserve anything, and they could not get a job or that they do not want to work, and therefore the way they did have turned into socialists, and they started living outside the government.”

“We cannot get it. We have to return to work. This country is based on hard work,” he said.

Meanwhile, Senator Ron Johnson, R and Wisconsin, said he also agrees on work requirements, as he told Fox News Digital that “frankly, what we are trying to do is stop joining this addition to Obamacare to Medicaid.”

“They call it the expansion of Medicine, but this is Obamcare. The Democrats were trying to turn us into a single defender system. Thus, it motivated the states to participate in unilateral individuals capable of the body.”

“As a result,” gold. “We have created all kinds [what] I would like to call legal fraud on the part of the states … Now that their budgets have designed this fraud, they are now screaming when we are trying to end the fraud. “

In addition, while Senator John Vitirman, DA, expressed that “of course, we should always remove any type of fraud and this type of waste”, other Democrats were less enthusiastic about the requirements of work.

“This ruling is not designed for efficiency or to provide the money of people designed to expel people from Medicaid, like the noise,” said Senator Chris Murphy, De Kon.

Murphy claimed that the Republicans “built a job condition that people know that people will not be able to satisfy them because they hate the idea that Medicaid actually helps the poor working in this country.”

“Therefore, there will be a full set of people working for a living who will not be able to comply with these provisions and will lose health care, although they work,” he said. “This is the intention of judgment and everyone should be honest in that.”

Senator Mark Kelly, De Areez, pointed out that the ruling “will expel 17 million people from health insurance.”

“These are the situations of life and death that people make, adding,” This legislation will kick 300,000 of the voters of health care. “

“These are the people you spoke to cannot tolerate.” “They have no money in their budget to go and buy health care. So, then they made a decision between eating and renting them, or they do not go to the doctor.”

“Despite the claims of Democrats about the requirements of work, the reality tells a different story,” James Agrry, President of Just Facts, a general policy research institute, told Fox News Digital.

He said: “The idea that adults who cannot do other than young people cannot work, obtain education or volunteering for 20 hours a week, is ridiculous.”

The Americans weigh

“Murphy’s speech is refuted by contracts of experience with other social welfare programs that have work requirements, such as temporary assistance to needy families,” he explained.

Agresti said that, according to the estimates of the CBO budget office (CBO), 1.4 million non -citizen and 9.2 million people who do not work or participate in fraud from Medicaid eligibility will be removed.

A spokesman for the Kelly Fox News Design told that “a group of actual experts and the media correctly explain this in this report of the Central Bank of Oman itself,” estimates that 11.8 million people will be without health insurance by 2034 due to the ruling, in addition to additional 5.1 million people due to the bill that ends from the affordable and affordable care law.

In response, Agresti said that the draft law “does not abolish the expanded Obamacare subsidies, which was a temporary bulletin in the Kofid era, which is the Democrats in the American Salvation Plan and extends in the law of reducing inflation.”

Agresti said: “Even the New York Times reported that adding these numbers to the outcome for the beautiful big bill” is an exaggeration “and not” the real number. “

He also said that many studies have proven that the action inhibitors are a real problem in America.
