More than five million Americans have lost health coverage across the US in the year since Donald Trump signed a Republican backed law that cut deeply into public healthcare spending, according to a report released Monday by Protect Our Care, which described the figure as the human toll of Trump healthcare cuts.
The losses trace back to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act passed last July, which cut nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program over the next decade while delivering tax breaks expected to hand another $1 trillion to the richest 1% of Americans.
