How Trump’s Massive, Wide Ranging Budget Bill Could Affect You
Manage episode 486484897 series 2097742
President Trump’s budget bill rolls back clean energy initiatives, reduces Medicaid benefits, alters student loan rules, and extends tax cuts to the wealthiest, among other initiatives. It passed in the House by a bare margin, but Republican senator Ron Johnson has called the bill “divorced from reality,” indicating that it may face headwinds in the Senate. We talk with reporters about what’s in the 1000-plus page bill and its political implications.
Guests:
Russell Berman, staff writer, The Atlantic
Claudia Grisales, congressional correspondent, NPR
