Fox News
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is accusing House Republicans of passing a "budget resolution that sets in motion the largest Medicaid cut in American history."
"Every single House Democrat from New York City, from New York State and across the country oppose this reckless Republican budget, and we will continue to do so as long as the health care of the American people is being targeted, as long as nutritional assistance for children and families is being targeted by the extreme MAGA Republicans," Jeffries added. Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.
