"Public health emergencies are going to continue. And that exemption does not do anything for the greater Medicaid needs after a natural disaster like these hurricanes."

"Relaxing the per-capita cap by $5 billion in total for 50 States over a 5-year period just simply is not adequate."

"The bill guts the Medicaid program and, therefore, cuts hundreds of billions of dollars of support to pregnant women, low-income adults, and children over time."

"The Graham-Cassidy bill caps Medicaid, effectively cutting billions from the program."
