Recent federal legislative changes under the Trump administration introduced major proposals to scale back federal contributions to Medicaid and revise the program’s framework. For instance, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” enacted in 2025, is expected to reduce federal Medicaid funding by more than $1 trillion in the next decade and contains measures such as work requirements and higher out-of-pocket charges, which may affect certain beneficiaries’ coverage. States are projected to take on more Medicaid costs, potentially slowing federal spending growth, even as the program continues to insure tens of millions.
