Chuck Schumer and Senators Discuss Health Care Cuts and Medicaid Reforms

Published | Video Starts at 25:01

Thank you. Well done. Maggie Hassett, just again, so you heard, everything's getting worse. The more you look at the bill, the worse it gets. It's now a trillion dollars in cuts. It's over 800,000 job loss, many of them in nursing Homes and rural hospitals. Just remember they depend on Medicaid disproportionately. I've been in nursing homes in downstate, upstate, rural. (25:01–25:04)
