HCR Update from Mark Sanna: The House Approved $310 Billion in cuts, but passage in the Senate is very unlikely. Of the savings, $23.5 billion came from Medicaid and children's health care; $4.2 billion from hospitals that serve the poor and uninsured; and $33.7 billion from supplemental nutrition assistance. In all, about a quarter of the cuts would come directly from programs that benefit the poor.
