We all know the Republican leadership can pass a budget without bipartisan support, but bipartisanship will be required to fund discretionary programs.

The American people need more from us. They deserve more from us.

Ultimately, that puts more and more pressure on State and local governments to pick up the slack if we cut this vital funding.

As we move into budget season, I am deeply concerned about Republican plans for the budget.

Okay, so now turn to Medicaid. This is now regular Medicaid not the expanding Medicaid, you project expenditures growing from $389 billion in 2017 to $650 billion in 2027 which is a significant increase.

When you are looking at over a trillion dollars of tax expenditures, you are looking at another significant impact on the deficit.

Thanks. Another point you make is that the subsidies on the exchanges, assuming that they are not repealed, would double basically from this year until 10 years.

But that has not been the case over the last 5 years.

Most of the mortgage deduction benefit goes to wealthier taxpayers, is that not correct?

the projections if, not your projections, but other projections, show that if we actually were to rescind the Affordable Care Act, the Medicaid expansion or just the Medicaid expansion we would lose an awful lot of jobs, 10s of thousands…

Last year, this House renewed about $800 billion of tax expenditures as I recall with no offset.
