Medicaid Cuts Impact Counter

President Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act into law on July 4, 2025, cutting approximately one trillion dollars from Medicaid over the next 10 years. This public health insurance program is a lifeline for tens of millions of low-income Americans and these cuts could result in millions losing access to essential healthcare services. The consequences will be severe—leading to preventable deaths, worsening chronic disease outcomes, and deepening health disparities across the country. To illustrate the human cost of these cuts, our impact counter will track the estimated lives lost and health outcomes worsened starting from the day the budget is enacted.
