Trump’s federal funding freeze slated to disrupt vast array of programs, Illinois shut out of Medicaid – Chicago Sun-Times

“The governor has directed his senior team to assess the detrimental impacts of this unlawful action on the state’s budget and services,” Pritzker spokesman Matt Hill said. Nearly 4 million lower-income Illinoisans had their health care covered in 2023 by Medicaid, a system in which the federal government reimburses the state about half of every dollar in medical costs.

For a minute there, I thought he was talking about his sanctuary policies when referring to the detrimental impact of unlawful action on the state’s budget and services.

These Dem talking points have no foundation in reality. The Government Industrial Complex is terrified of sunlight.

This whole article is a big FAT lie – *individuals* who are receiving Medicaid/Medicare/SNAP and other federal benefits will *not* be affected, they’ll continue receiving their benefits. This was stressed in today’s WH Press Briefing, link below. BTW, Karoline Leavitt is THE BOMB – a refreshing change from the bumbling stupid Xiden Press Secretary… she is smart, savvy, and totally unscripted… YAY…!!!

Hearing “unconstitutional” coming from Pritzker is utterly hysterical
