Trump-era federal budget legislation brought major suggestions to curtail federal Medicaid support and restructure the program. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” for example, became law in 2025 and is set to trim over $1 trillion in federal Medicaid spending during the coming 10 years. The law introduces new policies like work requirements and higher cost-sharing that could limit both coverage and funding for certain populations. This is likely to pass more costs onto states and restrict how much federal Medicaid help grows, despite continued demand from tens of millions of Americans.
