A bill that would repeal Medicaid expansion has been introduced in the House Health and Welfare Committee, facing resistance from both sides. The bill's sponsor, Rep. Jordan Redman, argues that the cost savings would be about $1.334 billion and that Idahoans were not fully aware of the program's cost. Opposition members argue that the repeal would result in millions of dollars in federal funds supporting the program. The proposal was recommended by the Idaho DOGE Task Force, an interim committee tasked with making the state more efficient. Redman argues that employers provide incentives for employees to stay below 30 hours a week to stay on Medicaid.
