The budget proposal pushed by former President Donald Trump has advanced in the U.S. House of Representatives, promising significant fiscal changes. Central to this legislation are proposed cuts to key social assistance programs,

CNN correspondent Daniel Dale took on President Donald Trump over claims about his "Big Beautiful Bill," which Dale saaid will hurt some Trump supporters.

Republican lawmakers are calling for work requirements, stricter eligibility verification and some co-pays.

New rules would restrict access to the low-income health insurance program, punish states covering undocumented children, and shift costs to states.

Now the Senate gets its hands on the "big, beautiful bill," which exceeds 1,000 pages, after House committees labored on it for months.

Hospitals, physicians, health insurers, long-term care providers and others warn of serious consequences for the healthcare system.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates the cuts will lead to 8.6 million people losing coverage over the next decade.

The bill is part of a broader effort to curb waste and fraud in the program, which provides health coverage to more than 1.8 million low-income Louisianans.

House Republicans promised not to cut Medicaid, but a bill that passed early Thursday morning could jeopardize coverage for many in North Carolina.

A new hurdle for poor Americans, approved by the House, would cause millions to lose coverage, including many who are working but can’t meet reporting rules.
