WASHINGTON – The Joint Economic Committee – Minority calculated new state-by-state data on the number of people who would lose health insurance due to President Trump and Congressional Republicans’ proposed cuts to Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act. The Committee calculations are based on the latest numbers available, including from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO)’s initial analysis released on Sunday evening – which found that cuts to Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act would result in roughly 13.7 million people losing their health insurance by 2034.
The fact sheet, available here, provides initial estimates for all 50 states and D.C. of the estimated number of people losing their health insurance. State-by-state data is here and below:

Source: The state-by-state numbers were created by combining estimates from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office on the national total number of people who would lose insurance by 2034 with a range of state-level data on the number of people enrolled in Affordable Care Act plans, the total number of Medicaid enrollees in each state, and early analyses of how some Medicaid cuts in the bill would impact each state. The JEC – Minority may issue updated estimates based on changes to the bill or updated analyses of its impacts. |
