Breaking Through: Medicaid. Maternal Health. How Trump’s Policies Are Hurting All of Us, Including His Voters
On the radio show this week we discuss the single largest program for maternity care in the United States, Medicaid, and why we’re fighting to protect it. Next, we dive into the many ways the Trump administration’s “cost-cutting” measures will actually end up costing all of our families and our economy more in the long-run, from decimating the Department of Education and school safety to the terrible tariffs creating trade wars and massive economic instability. We also cover how, disproportionately, a lot of these adverse impacts will be felt by the very people who helped put Trump in office. Finally, we learn how we break through the disinformation and help people see the truth.
