Medical groups warn Senate budget bill will create dystopian healthcare system

The legislation will harm the health of children, families, and communities. The cuts to Medicaid and SNAP will mean that many children will not have healthy food to eat. When they are sick, they will not have health insurance to cover their medical bills—which means some children will simply forgo essential health care.
