Federal budget measures passed under President Trump have proposed substantial cuts and restructuring of Medicaid at the national level. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” enacted in 2025, is expected to trim federal Medicaid outlays by more than $1 trillion over 10 years by adding requirements for beneficiaries and increasing state responsibilities, which may reduce coverage and impose additional burdens on some recipients. These shifts could decrease federal support for Medicaid as the program continues to serve millions of Americans.
