Nearly 12 million estimated to lose health coverage under Trump budget bill

The US Senate is close to passing a budget bill that could cut health coverage for up to 12 million Americans and increase the national debt by $3.3 trillion. The bill, pushed by President Trump, faced opposition from both Democratic senators and Republican defectors like Senator Thom Tillis, who voted against it. The bill's impact on healthcare, including cuts to Medicaid, has sparked intense debate and political maneuvering in the Senate.
