Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) recently ripped into progressives for opposing Medicaid reform. 

“Medicaid is meant to be a state-federal partnership,” Cassidy, who has an M.D., wrote on X. “States are supposed to pay for 40% of the cost. Most states are paying for less than 15%. … People should not be asking what is the federal government doing? They should be asking why aren’t the states doing more.”
