Ohio Republican attorney general candidate appears to advocate ending parts of Medicaid
Ohio Auditor Keith Faber made statements implying support for ending parts of Ohio Medicaid, though his campaign clarified he supports lawful use of Medicaid funds. The program covers over 3 million Ohioans and costs $40 billion annually. President Trump previously questioned federal Medicaid funding, and a Democratic candidate accused Republicans of exaggerating provider fraud to justify cutting the program.
