The CT Mirror: CT Federal Judge Rules Against Enforcing Trump-era Medicaid Cuts (February 3, 2023)
A federal district court judge in Connecticut ruled this week that the Biden administration must stop the enforcement of a Trump-era rule that terminated Medicaid benefits for some enrollees on the health program for low-income and disabled individuals.
“Any loss of Medicaid benefits disproportionately impacts low-income older and disabled adults of color, who are already most at risk of institutionalization and illness due to structural inequities,” Carol Wong, associate litigation director of Justice in Aging and one of the plaintiff attorneys, said in a statement.
