(1) NOPE!!! That's the HOUSE bill, H.R.1; different from the Senate version!! Please try to keep up!!!
(2) Sorry, dude! I trust the Congressional Budget Office analysis of tRump's BBB much more than I trust yours!! This one is dated June 29; probably refers to a Senate version from June 27-28.
⚠ The Senate Republican reconciliation bill would cut gross federal Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) spending by $1.02 trillion over the next ten years. That means the Senate bill’s Medicaid and CHIP cuts are $156.1 billion or 18 percent larger than even the House-passed bill’s draconian cuts of $863.4 billion over ten years.
⚠ These larger gross Medicaid and CHIP cuts are driven by changes to the House-passed bill that would further restrict state use of provider taxes to finance Medicaid, eliminate eligibility for many lawfully present immigrants, cut federal funding for payments to hospitals furnishing emergency Medicaid services, and further reduce certain supplemental payments to hospitals and other providers (known as state-directed payments). The spending effect of these additional cuts is modestly offset by increased Medicaid and CHIP spending from provisions not in the House-passed bill including a rural health transformation program, increased federal Medicaid funding for Alaska and Hawaii, and expanded waiver authority for home- and community-based services.
⚠ Overall, the Senate Republican reconciliation bill’s Medicaid, CHIP, Affordable Care Act marketplace, and Medicare provisions would increase the number of uninsured by 11.8 million in 2034, relative to current law. In comparison, the House-passed bill would increase the number of uninsured by 10.9 million in 2034. (More detailed CBO estimates of the specific Medicaid health coverage effects under the Senate Republican reconciliation bill are not yet available. For example, CBO estimates the House-passed bill’s Medicaid and CHIP provisions would cut Medicaid enrollment by 10.5 million by 2034 and by themselves, increase the number of uninsured by 7.8 million by 2034.)
You claim to have read the "big beautiful bill" but you missed the part in the bill where it moves the Space Shuttle Discovery from the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum in Washington to somewhere in Texas!!
Deep within the 900-page bill is a provision added by Texas' senators to transfer a "space vehicle" to a NASA center "involved in the administration of the Commercial Crew Program" and "placed on public exhibition at an entity within the Metropolitan Statistical Area where such center is located."
The vague language, written in such a way to skirt Senate restrictions on reconciliation bills, was aimed at achieving the "Bring the Space Shuttle Home Act" introduced by Senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn in April.
You missed that, didn't you, @Reason10?? And if you missed that, there's no telling what ELSE you missed!!!
@Reason10 Your idea of a "credible source" regarding Florida's public school education quality is the Florida Department of Education???
Here are my sources: https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/profiles/stateprofile?sfj=NP&chort=2&sub=MAT&sj=&st=MN&year=2024R3 https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/profiles/stateprofile?sfj=NP&chort=2&sub=RED&sj=&st=MN&year=2024R3
Interestingly, Florida has not managed to report their high school seniors' NAEP scorces since 2013! What are they hiding???
