“On April 14, 2025, Nick LaLota was one of twelve House Republicans who signed a letter to Speaker Mike Johnson stating they "will not support a final reconciliation bill that includes any reduction in Medicaid coverage for vulnerable populations."”
LaLota's press release framed the OBBB as achieving 'deficit reduction' while 'protecting Social Security and Medicare.' The CBO found the opposite — the bill would add $3-4 trillion to the deficit. Constituent polling showed a majority had serious concerns about the bill's Medicaid and SNAP cuts. The framing of deficit reduction in his official statement is directly contradicted by the CBO's independent fiscal analysis.
