U.S. President Donald Trump appeared on Capitol Hill this week to press for passage of his new tax plan, a centerpiece of his second-term legislative agenda. The bill proposes to extend tax breaks from his previous administration, include new tax breaks, eliminate tip taxes and implement cuts to social programs.<\/p>\n

During his meeting with lawmakers, Trump assured that workers will not lose health coverage despite proposed adjustments to the public health care system. “They will not lose health insurance. I’m reducing the price of drugs by 85%. This is going to represent a savings for working families,” he assured the press.<\/p>\n

One of the most controversial aspects of Trump’s tax plan is the modification of the Medicaid program.<\/p>\n

It currently provides medical services to millions of low-income people, including many Hispanics.<\/p>\n

Under the proposal, access would be limited to immigrants with legal backgrounds or temporary immigration status.<\/p>\n

Trump justified these changes as part of a strategy to reduce “waste, fraud and abuse.”<\/p>\n

However, health and civil rights organizations have warned that these measures could leave vulnerable communities without access to essential medical services.<\/p>\n

Health sector experts warn that a reduction in Medicaid<\/a> coverage would have a direct impact on public hospitals, community clinics and state health systems.<\/p>\n

Internal divisions<\/h2>\n

Although the majority of Republicans in Congress support Trump’s proposed tax plan, there are sectors of the party itself that have expressed doubts.<\/p>\n

Especially because of the potential social and fiscal consequences of the package.<\/p>\n

Some lawmakers fear that Medicaid cuts could be unpopular in their districts and hurt their chances in the 2026 midterm elections.<\/p>\n

The House of Representatives has scheduled extended sessions to vote on the bill before Memorial Day.<\/p>\n

As well as moving it to the Senate with the goal of signing it before July 4, a symbolic date for the president.<\/p>\n

Trump was confident after meeting with members of his party.<\/p>\n

“It was a unity meeting. Anyone who doesn’t support it as a Republican is making a big mistake,” he said as he left Congress.<\/p>\n
