Advocacy Groups Tour Wisconsin to Push Back on Medicaid Cuts
Protect Our Care and Main Street Action held events across Wisconsin, including a Madison stop, urging federal action to reverse 2025 law provisions that cut an estimated nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid over ten years. Speakers, including a small business owner facing higher ACA premiums and Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul, called for restoring enhanced ACA marketplace subsidies, reversing the Medicaid cuts, and expanding Medicare drug price negotiation authority. The bus tour also targeted Republican congressional candidates ahead of the Nov. 3 election. Kaul noted Wisconsin has joined other states in litigation against Trump administration health policy actions, citing wins such as preserving $200 million in state public health funding.
