The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is suing the Trump administration over its approval of sweeping
changes to Medicaid law, which the organization claims will endanger the health care of tens of
thousands of low-income individuals and families in Kentucky.
The SPLC also noted that the
state’s recently approved waiver will result in the imposition of
premiums and cost sharing, “lockouts,” benefit cuts, and a work
requirement, that, by the state’s own admission, will result in
substantial reductions in coverage.
This is the first lawsuit to
challenge a Trump administration Medicaid waiver approval.
