“A number of the country’s most Republican-leaning states have some of the greatest percentage of their population on Medicaid.”
“Louisiana (32.4), Kentucky (28.3), West Virginia (28.2) and Arkansas (27.4) were among seven states that had more than 25 percent of their population on the Medicaid program, according to the health policy research website KFF. All four were also states that voted for Trump in the 2024 election, and West Virginia is among the top five most Republican-leaning states in the country, according to analysis by the election website FiveThirtyEight.”

SNAP cuts + Medicaid cuts = $$ for tax cuts for the top 20%
