Poll: Americans don’t think recipients are ripping off Medicaid
A KFF poll shows most Americans do not believe Medicaid recipients are the primary source of fraud and view the anti-fraud push as political. The poll highlights greater concern about taxes than Medicaid fraud, while a Senate bill proposes cutting Medicaid funding for clinics providing abortions. President Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' reduced Medicaid by $1 trillion over 10 years, contributing to coverage drops in states like Ohio.
