House Speaker Mike Johnson was grilled on CBS News Sunday about the “One Big Beautiful Bill” he helped get through Congress.
CBS News’ Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan pressed Johnson on President Trump‘s bill, asking him how he was going to justify to his constituents that nearly 200,000 people from his home-state of Louisiana could lose their Medicaid coverage as a result.
The bill states, among other things, that it will eliminate taxes on tips, extend Trump’s 2017 corporate and individual tax cuts, spend over $50 billion to build a wall and hire border patrol agents, and, most importantly, cut $1 trillion in funding to Medicaid and food stamps.
