Klobuchar: One of the First Road Kills for OBBB Are 300 Rural Hospitals, 500 Nursing Homes

EXCERPT:

KLOBUCHAR: “So what you’re going to see, and we’ve already — by the way, the Republicans know about it as in one senator, Thom Tillis, over the Medicaid issue, spoke the truth, had the audacity to talk the truth, and then was threatened with a primary and decided not to run again. So I think one of the first roadkill, sadly, to all of this are going to be these rural hospitals, 300 of them, 500 nursing homes. One out of two people in assisted living are people who are on Medicaid. You also have $500 billion in Medicare cuts that were triggered by the fact that this big beautiful betrayal of the American people adds. $4 trillion in debt. You know what? We just got the numbers, Jen. That is $30,000 for every household. That adds $1,000 for every mortgage. So, yeah, they tried to hide a bunch of this stuff till later, after the midterms, but some of the stuff is going to hit in right away."
