Iowa could lose nearly 10,000 jobs and about $958 million in economic output under potential Medicaid and food aid cuts, according to a new analysis from the Commonwealth Fund and the George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health.
Driving the news: The House of Representatives' latest budget resolution calls for more than $1 trillion in combined cuts to government programs including Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.
The details of any such cuts would need to be sorted out in Congress; the Senate has not yet worked out its own budget blueprint.
