The Trump Administration says it may be willing to phase out medicaid earlier to satisfy. Republican leaders are aware the further the bill is moved to the right, the harder it is to pass in the senate as the medicaid changes are on Older Americans. The house needs better support on that demographic. We believe we need to ada additional assistance to the people into the older system.

We intend on letting 38 members know how the representatives voted. Aarp uses this report. Premiums would rise under this new republican plan. More than half of your income for health care. They pay more because it charges Older Americans four to five times what younger americans pay. Aarp is on the offensive. You heard paul ryan talking about the cohort. Interesting term. Budget talk.

Reporter theyre pretending they will not Pay Attention, saying they are too busy and wont be watching. That is from the kremlin spokesperson. He said they dont expect any details from the hearing. A broken record with a future song. Theres two different ways to look at how moscow is feeling about the enormous amount of noise of the alleged interventi intervention. They are relishing the idea that they are able to influence the ca campaign from afar. As global puppets. On the other side, it does box them in in terms of white house policy. Trump is absent in saying negative things about Vladimir Putin. It is tough for him to come up with policy that may suit russian interests or lead to something between russia and washington because of the suspected collusion. That is the mess were in right now. Im sure there will be some delighted to see the bickering that the accusations. Asked about putin over the weekend and trump called him a tough cookie. That is all he had to say. We know the government is pretending not to listen. What about the people and the press . Reporter state tv is addressing this and appears to be less glowing of donald trump in the past few weeks. When trump calls putin a cookie, consider the statement. Vladimir putin is a man who grew up after world war ii poverty stricken at times. Rose up with the kgb to be president of the country.
