60 Years Later: Republicans Strengthen Medicaid. Democrats Exploit It.

July 30, 2025

Today marks 60 years since Medicaid was created to help America’s most vulnerable.

While Democrats lie, fear-monger, and fight to give taxpayer-funded benefits to illegal immigrants, President Trump and Republicans are STRENGTHENING Medicaid for those who truly need it and deserve it the most.

Just look at the results

  • Medicaid spending is going UP year over year to support those in need.
  • Illegal immigrants are no longer leeching off American taxpayers.
  • Able-bodied recipients are being asked to work or volunteer just 80 hours a month, the equivalent of 20 hours/week.
  • Waste, fraud, and abuse are being cleaned from the system.

ALL of these reforms are wildly popular amongst the American electorate because Republican solutions are commonsense solutions.

“Democrats want to turn Medicaid into a blank check for illegal immigrants and freeloaders. President Trump and Republicans are strengthening Medicaid for the truly vulnerable, cutting out the fraud, and restoring dignity through work. The contrast couldn’t be clearer. ”​ — NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella
