GOP governors stay silent amid plans to slash Medicaid spending in their states

West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey is among 19 Republican governors of states that stand to lose federal Medicaid funds if Congress passes the tax bill with proposed cuts to the program.

In 2017, when President Trump tried to repeal Obamacare and roll back Medicaid coverage, Republican governors rallied against it. Now, as Trump tries again to scale back Medicaid, they’ve gone quiet.
