President Donald Trump defended his “Big, Beautiful, Bill” during a Fox News interview broadcast on Saturday night, claiming "it's not going to cause death, it's going to keep people alive" even as millions are estimated to lose health coverage under the legislation signed into law on July 4.
About 11.8 million people are at risk of losing their health insurance, according to the Congressional Budget Office, but not all at once. The legislation cuts federal health care programs over the course of a decade to remove close to $1 trillion from Medicaid, Obamacare, and the Children’s Health Insurance Program.
