WASHINGTON \u2014 President Trump on Friday proposed massive cuts to the federal government\u2019s health agencies in his 2026 budget request<\/a>, arguing that Congress should reduce spending by tens of billions from current levels.<\/p>\n

The request would be a 26% cut to the Department of Health and Human Services\u2019 discretionary budget, which doesn\u2019t include spending on health coverage programs like Medicare and Medicaid.<\/p>\n

The administration justified proposed cuts across HHS by saying programs are duplicative, overly ideological, or better left to the states \u2014 despite many of them being supported in the first Trump administration and many previous Republican administrations.\u00a0<\/p>\n
