She called DOGE's work reassuring, voted to confirm RFK Jr., then watched the cuts wipe out the NIOSH facility in Morgantown. A miner with black lung and a federal judge forced it back. Seven weeks after the firings she was still telling Kennedy she supported the vision.
Section 453 was buried in the Interior-EPA funding bill Simpson chairs. It would have shielded Bayer — which has already paid about $11 billion to roughly 100,000 cancer plaintiffs — from failure-to-warn suits. It took Democrats six months to get it out.
An NPR analysis of midterm campaign ads found Valadao running spots promising to lower costs and protect Medicare and Medicaid. His district has more Medicaid enrollees than any other Republican seat in America. He voted for the bill that cut it.
Allen told a reporter the health cuts wouldn't touch Georgia because Georgia never expanded Medicaid. KFF now puts the state's ten-year Medicaid loss at $7.32 billion. A hospital in his own district is looking at closing its ICU. He chairs the House subcommittee on health, employment, labor and pensions.
"It's very important that we keep our rural hospitals open for business," Alford said in March 2026 — after voting in July 2025 for the law behind half of the 27,243 people in his own district projected to lose coverage. His rescue bill has three cosponsors and has never moved.
Garbarino spent 2025 pressing HHS — letters, joint statements, private conversations — to undo DOGE's cuts to the World Trade Center Health Program. On June 12, 2025, he voted to write $9.4 billion of DOGE's other cuts into permanent law. It passed by two votes.
His Appalachian district is one of the most Medicaid-dependent in America. At least seven of the Kentucky hospitals flagged as at risk of closing sit in it. He voted yes and called it a win.
Fulcher called Moyle v. United States a case about 'elective, induced abortion.' It was about whether Idaho ERs must stabilize women in medical crisis. In the first three months Idaho's ban applied in the ER, St. Luke's flew six pregnant patients to other states.
His press release calls the $50 billion Rural Health Transformation Fund 'first-of-its-kind.' It never mentions that the same law cuts $137 billion from rural Medicaid — or that he voted for it in May and again in July.
