Congresswoman Escobar criticizes a non-partisan CBO analysis of Trump's bill, highlighting negative impacts on low-income families.
Quiver AI Summary
Congresswoman Veronica Escobar (TX-16) issued a statement responding to a recent non-partisan analysis by the Congressional Budget Office regarding Trump's proposed legislation. She voiced concern that nearly 120,000 residents of El Paso could face an annual financial loss of $1,200, primarily due to cuts in Medicaid and food assistance programs.
Escobar stated, "El Pasoans are already struggling to afford essentials," and criticized the bill for benefiting the wealthy while hurting low-income families. While advocating for bipartisan support to address these issues, she emphasized the urgent need to prepare affected families for negative impacts starting next year.
The report indicated that families earning less than $51,000 annually would face significant hardships, while wealthier households would see substantial financial gains. Escobar highlighted that the analysis suggests a potential loss of health insurance for nearly 1.7 million Texans and increased energy costs affecting rural hospitals.
