CRS states that P.L. 119-21 includes health provisions affecting Medicaid and that CBO estimates the Medicaid provisions will reduce federal outlays by $989.7 billion and increase the uninsured by 7.5 million in FY2034.

Official CRS/CBO analysis shows the enacted law included large Medicaid spending reductions, directly contradicting the promise to block legislation cutting Medicaid.
