Trump’s Social Security Cuts: Broken Promises, Mass Layoffs
President Trump’s earlier assurances of Social Security and Medicare safety are contradicted by his endorsement of a House Republican budget plan. This plan proposes an $880 billion cut to Medicaid to fund tax cuts. The newly implemented DOGE cuts further exacerbate the situation by slashing the Social Security Administration’s budget by half. This drastic reduction will negatively impact the benefits received by millions of Americans. The actions represent a significant shift from prior pronouncements on social programs.
