众议院的一些共和党人似乎不想大幅削减医疗补助的预算,因为他们不想取消自己选区居民的免费医疗福利。

周三,一份报告指出,共和党为了省钱,计划减少医疗补助的支出,这可能导致数百万美国人失去医疗补助。共和党还打算在医疗和食品券等项目上削减1.5万亿美元的开支,以弥补减税造成的政府收入减少。

报告说,在每种情况中,获得医疗补助的人会减少,而没有医疗保险的人会增加。

这项发现让人们不确定众议院议长迈克·约翰逊是否能在特朗普总统设定的阵亡将士纪念日前,让特朗普所说的“宏大、美丽的法案”获得通过。

议员们越来越担心,特别是因为经济问题,比如特朗普的贸易政策让东西变贵,人们可能失业。这项法案最重要的部分是共和党想让2017年的减税政策继续下去,但他们也想在其他地方少花钱,这样国家的欠债和赤字就不会一直增加了。

本周,约翰逊在议长办公室和一些共和党人开了几次会,特别是那些代表竞争激烈的选区的议员。

民主党人请CBO发布这份报告,并很快指出了报告里的重要发现。

新泽西州的民主党代表弗兰克·帕隆说,一份报告显示,共和党的医疗计划会让很多人失去医疗保险。

周二晚上,离开会议的共和党众议员说,约翰逊和共和党领导人将放弃一些有争议的医疗补助改革,这些改革涉及联邦政府给州的钱。

共和党议员范德鲁说,这些医保改革不会再讨论了。

纽约的共和党议员尼克·拉洛塔说,特朗普以前说过他不想减少医疗补助。他说,现在共和党人更倾向于在其他地方减少医疗补助。

拉洛塔说,其他一些建议包括要求接受政府医疗帮助的人工作,受益人每年检查两次资格,并确保没有合法身份的移民不能得到这项帮助。

但是,一些比较保守的共和党人,比如众议院自由核心小组,坚持要大幅减少政府支出,这样才能避免因为减税而出现更多的赤字。

医疗补助是一个由州和联邦政府共同管理的项目,它帮助七千一百万成年人获得医疗服务。

共和党正在考虑减少联邦政府在这个项目上的支出,比如减少政府为参保人支付医疗费用的比例。有时候政府支付的比例很高,可以达到90%。

他们还在想限制联邦政府给每个享受医疗补助的人多少钱,但这想法好像也得不到议员们的支持了。

虽然这些改变可能省下很多钱,但报告说大约一千万人会失去医疗补助,所以这些计划好像停下来了。

然而,共和党还在考虑改变医疗补助计划。他们想限制州政府对那些得到更多联邦资金的医疗机构征税。报告说,这样做可以省下很多钱,但也可能导致大约八百万人没有医疗保险。
