众议院共和党人似乎正对作为减税法案一部分的医疗补助削减采取更加谨慎的态度,然而,一些温和派共和党议员对此表示反对,他们不希望取消其选民的低成本医疗保障。

周三,国会预算办公室发布报告说,共和党的提案可能会让数百万美国人失去医疗补助,因为这些提案是为了省钱。众议院的共和党人想在联邦医疗、食品券等项目上少花1.5万亿美元,这样可以弥补减税带来的4.5万亿美元的收入减少。

报告指出,根据各项方案,医疗补助计划的注册人数将减少,而没有医疗保险的人数将增加。

这项发现对议长迈克·约翰逊能否在他设定的截止日期——阵亡将士纪念日——前通过前总统唐纳德·特朗普所说的“宏大、美丽的法案”的问题,引发了新的疑问。

议员们越来越担心,特别是因为经济问题,他们担心特朗普的政策,比如贸易战,可能会让东西变贵,商店里没货,甚至让一些地方的人失业。这项法案的主要内容是共和党想让2017年的减税政策继续下去,这个政策今年就要结束了。但他们也想减少其他方面的开支,这样就有钱来减税,也能控制国家的欠债和花销。

本周,约翰逊在国会大厦议长办公室与一些共和党人进行了深入沟通,尤其是那些选区争议较大且立场较为温和的共和党议员。

民主党人曾请求CBO出具此报告,并迅速关注了这一发现。

新泽西州民主党众议员弗兰克·帕隆指出:“这份无党派的国会预算办公室分析,印证了我们此前的观点:共和党的医保方案恐致数百万人丧失医疗保险。” 这份审查由他与俄勒冈州参议员罗恩·怀登共同申请。

离开会议的众议院共和党议员周二晚些时候表示,约翰逊和共和党领导层正在放弃部分备受争议的、与联邦对州医疗补助配比资金率有关的改革措施。

新泽西州共和党籍众议员杰夫·范德鲁表示,那些医疗补助改革方案“不再是考虑的选项”。

纽约共和党籍国会议员尼克·拉洛塔提醒说,特朗普本人过去也曾表达过反对削减医疗补助。他反而指出,目前共和党内部一个日益增长的共识是将削减医疗补助的重点放在其他方面。

拉洛塔表示,其他建议包括对享受医疗补助者设置工作限制,要求受益人每年进行两次资格审查,并确保非法移民无法获得相关援助。

然而,以众议院自由核心小组为首的一些更保守的共和党人则坚持要求大幅削减开支,以避免减税可能造成的赤字激增。

医疗补助是一项州与联邦合作的项目,为7100万成年人提供医疗服务。

共和党正在研究多种方法来削减联邦政府在该项目上的开支,比如减少政府为参保者支付医疗费用的比例,这个比例在某些时候可能达到90%。

此外,联邦政府对每位医疗补助受益者的支出上限仍在讨论中,尽管此提议在议员中支持度正在下降。

尽管这些改变可能节省数十亿美元,报告也指出,这会导致约一千万人失去医疗保险,这些措施看来已暂停。

然而,共和党仍在探索其他医疗补助改革,包括限制州政府对那些能从联邦获得更高报销的医疗服务机构征税。报告指出,这或可节省数十亿美元,但也可能导致约八百万人失去医疗保险。
