Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski faced sharp criticism for supporting President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful bill," despite previously expressing concern over its significant Medicaid cuts.
On Tuesday, Murkowski was one of 50 Republicans who voted to pass the sweeping bill, which includes major cuts to Medicaid, jeopardizing health coverage for 17 million Americans, along with the largest reduction to SNAP benefits in U.S. history, potentially leaving 5 million without access to food assistance.
