“On April 14, 2025, Robert Wittman 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."”
Wittman signed two separate letters to House leadership vowing he could not support legislation with 'any reduction in Medicaid coverage for vulnerable populations.' Less than six weeks later, he voted for a bill enacting the largest Medicaid cuts in U.S. history — approximately $930 billion — which the Virginia Democratic Party estimated would cause at least 260,000 Virginians to lose insurance coverage. The Virginian-Pilot editorial board headlined: 'Despite Medicaid pledges, Wittman and Kiggans folded.'
