Recent federal budget laws passed under the Trump administration have included major proposals aimed at reducing federal Medicaid funding and restructuring the program. The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” signed in 2025, is expected to decrease federal Medicaid spending by over $1 trillion over 10 years. It also introduces policies like work requirements and higher cost-sharing that may lower coverage and funding for certain participants. These measures are projected to shift more expenses to states and limit growth in federal Medicaid funding, even as the program continues serving millions nationwide.
