U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Mike Johnson looks at U.S. President Donald Trump signing the sweeping spending and tax legislation, known as the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," to mark Independence Day, at the White House in Washington, D.C., U.S., July 4, 2025.

Florida's health care workers and advocates are sounding the alarm over Medicaid cuts in President Trump's tax and spending bill, arguing millions of residents could lose access to care in an already underfunded system.

The reduction in patients who qualify for Medicaid will mean free clinics must fundraise or find other funds to cover costs for care. In addition, some people would lose ACA coverage, causing more people to seek care at free clinics that are already stretched thin.
