Health Care for Hispanics Disproportionately Impacted by Latest Federal Health Care Funding Cuts

A UnidosUS report claims that the progress made in Latino health care during the past decade is threatened by Medicaid funding cuts in 2025 and the expiration in January 2026 of the enhanced tax credits under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The report estimates that more than 28% of the 14 million individuals projected to lose health insurance coverage during the next 10 years will be Hispanic. States with large Latino populations, such as California and Florida, will be most impacted.
