medicare and medicaid passed in july 1965. medicaid was really an afterthought in the legislative drafting process. the law's ratification shortly after the assassination of president john f. kennedy meant that there was a greater focus on the medicare law and there were certain historical reasons for this. medicare grew out of the act in 1960 which also grew out of the medical aid for the aged mma program, which was a new deal era program that began in the 1940's and 1950's. and for that reason, most policymakers and legislators were focused on delivering medical assistance, public insurance options, for the elderly who were at risk of bankruptcy and high costs from end-of-life care. so when medicaid was appended to the law, it was seen as a way to extend a similar program to those who were deemed medically indigent. at first, the category of medical indigence was seen as a way to capture people that did not have incomes below the official poverty line. so say if a family of four in new york made $6,000, if they made $6,001,

he was not going to cut medicaid or medicare or social security. he lied.udgets that he has presented call for massive cuts to medicaid, medicare, and social security. [booing] senator sanders: trump, as a private businessman, loved the undocumented. did you know that? you see, right now as president, because he's trying to divide us up, he said we are supposed to hate the undocumented, but when he was a private business man, he loved the undocumented because he hired hundreds of them at low wages on his resorts. trump tells us we should be opposed to the outsourcing of good jobs. well, as a private businessman, he built his factories, not in the united states, but in india, china, turkey, bangladesh, and mexico. you know, abraham lincoln said, you could fool some of the people some of the time and you can fool some of the people all of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. [cheers and applause] senator sanders: and we're going to defeat trump because we are putting together an unprecedented multi-racial, multi-generational movemen

in 1965, senators and legislators didn't think medicaid would surpass medicare. it quickly becomes a popular program at least in the states that wanted to fund it. case when the laws passed, they used medical indigence he standard which was more liberal to expand access to 1.5 million new yorkers. when dixiecrat's in southern states pushed back against that the result ofion restricting medical indigence he newt that on million yorkers were taken off the rules. the johnson era and the great society was seen as an era of excessive liberalism even though it wasn't necessarily purely focused on expanding equity and begins richard nixon, he to pull back a number of and heration projects begins to deemphasize the focus on inpatient care in favor of out patient care. as inflation intensifies in the 70's, 1973 being the opec oil crisis and the nixon shock where the direct convertibility of the daughter there -- the dollar to gold is canceled, a number of push theomic shocks wider political and national context away from medicaid and this culminates in the administration

medicare will not cover. everything. thalso, when they talk about --i mean, ms. skiles, is she willing to take a pay cut? medicaid reimburses capitals and providers where they lose money. that is why many providers don't accept it. medicare they are lucky if they break even which is another reason why providers may not participate with medicare. it is the third-party payers or the insurance companies that are providing a reimbursement rate high enough for hospitals to stay open to develop you know, new treatments, research to happen to pay for increased allergies for the workers so like i said, every time i hear medicare fori all i am like, do you know how medicare works to oubegin with that it is not this wonderful thing that everybody or everything you need done is covered one 100% and as a nurse, i don't want it. that is a misnomer that all nurses want medicare for all. >> host: susan, we will get a response from cokie giles. they keep speaking yes, thank you for your call. i guess what i would like to start with is medicare for all bill that bernie has is primarily improve and expand medicare. my parents, jus

they say shows the president is cutting medicare and medicaid. was nancy posted, less than a week after promising to protect family healthcare in state of the union address, the president has brazenly inflicted savage multibillion-dollar cuts to medicare and medicaid, she goes on to say americans quality, affordable healthcare will never be saved with president trump. however, the white house and the president are saying medicare and medicaid numbers will be increasing and decreases our reforms or savings as they put it. here's a president earlier today. >> we are not decreasing medicaid but were doing a lot of things that are very great tremendous waste and tremendous fraud. >> also as well, earlier today at the white house, there was a nation's governor, two thirds of them sitting down getting some facetime in one-on-one with the president. we should know there were ten of the 24 democratic governors, democrats from democratic states, we believe that the white house, we did not see a sighting of gavin newsom or andrew cuomo i was told the near

safety net, so fewer people would be receiving food stamps, fewer people would be covered by medicaid, medicare, and that is essentially how they are looking to achieve long-term savings. host: you touched on this in terms of the growth projections the administration is proposing. the concord coalition's robert this, spending reform that flies in the face of recent experience, the president's budget would still be in deficit over the next 10 years, so what does their forecast a, what does the administration's forecast a about what we will be -- when we will be out of deficit? guest: right. this is the difference between what the government spends and the revenue that they take in. the idea is sort of this conservative, i cannot think of a good word for it, conservative ideal, and the president's first budget proposed to do that over the course of a decade. now we are looking at a less aggressive timeline that the administration is proposing. they say that they are aiming to close the deficit within 15 years. some conservatives are saying, speakow, ok, but actions louder than words. we will real

. >>> president trump's federal budget calls for deep cuts in medicaid, medicare. last night san rafael congressman jared huffman held a town hall meeting. one 93-year-old retired teacher worries about younger people including her own children. >> you're going to hear from seniors. it's not going to be such an easy job just to take it away from them. >> security and medicare throughout our working lives and payroll taxes. we earn these benefits. >> now congressman huffman supports legislation that would fund social security by several measures including raising the wage cap. >>> san francisco police still searching for the criminals involved in three attempted car- jackings. it happened early yesterday morning within blocks of each other. police say the first attempted car-jacking was around 2:30 in the morning at 9th and harrison. the second just five minutes later, a few dozen yards away. the second contacted a third victim, an uber driver 30 minutes later. >>> the police department in santa clarita is getting some celebrity help. >> hey, it's the reno sheriff's

he'd make cuts to domestic programs including food stamps, farm subsidies, student loans an medicaid. medicare and social security benefits would remain unchanged though medicare payments to doctors and hospitals would be trimmed. you can find our coverage of budget briefings an reaction at -span.org. >> article 2 is adopted. >> do you solemnly swear that in all things aper taining to the trifle the impeachment of donald john trump, poth the united states, now pend, you will do impartial justice according to the constitution and laws so elp you god? what we have seen over the last couple of days is a descent into constitutional madness. >> again, we think the base basis upon which this has moved forward is irregular to say the least. >> donald john trump, president of the united states, is not guilty as charged in the second article of impeachment. >> for the third time in u.s. history, a president has been impeached and acquitted. from the house hearings to the senate trial, c-span has provided live, comprehensive coverage of the impeachment of president trump. you can find all of our video a

medicare is great, medicaid works wonderfully. obviously, they are helping lots of people and people like them. i view this as a problem with our health care system and trying to address the root causes for the continued rapid growth -- growth. we have to address that. if we solve that we will solve the problem with medicare and medicaid. host: we have a viewer off of twitter asking about interest rates. and, if you think they might start to rise. anst: well, it is always intrepid thing. i forecast a lot of things, interest rates are tough. i do not think -- it depends on your horizon. caller isnow if this focused on the next year thinking they want to buy a home. you are in shape for the next six months, the economy is ok but not growing fast. there are a whole -- not a whole lot of inflationary pressures and we have risks like the ononavirus that will weigh growth. i think interest rates remain low. maybe the caller is thinking about buying a home. the 30 year fixed rate mortgage 3.5%,is going for about which is about as good as

programs will lose almost 300000000000 in funding according to trump's plan that extends to medicaid medicare and social security the focus right now suggests that there is a real chance that that budget could be approved we shout it out antiwar activist brian back it was incumbent by trump's changes. there is nothing more absurd than taking more money away from health education that which people need in the united states and using it to gin up for a confrontation with russia trump administration is moving far away from even the semblance of diplomacy they're cutting the state department and cutting the usa id budget but they're also cutting the national institutes for health the environmental protection agency they're cutting the centers for debris disease control at the same time the media in the government is feeding the war drums against china over the coronavirus the us is actually slashing its budget that's what the budget proposes big savage cuts to the health care infrastructure in america including to the centers for disease control and the national institute of health i mean this se

it does not cut medicare or medicaid. >> okay. if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it's a duck. it's a $500 billion cut to medicare over a ten-year period of time. now, the president's budget also cuts social security disability by $24 billion. true? >> the budget has reforms to the disability insurance program to ensure people are getting off a cycle of dependency and getting back to the work force when they can get jobs in the national economy. >> and that would result in a 24 billion cut. correct? >> we don't believe it will be a cut. we believe there are savings to be had from getting people back to work. it's also $7 billion of improper payments in the disability insurance program. that is reflected in our budget, there's no cuts. >> if we can stick to facts as opposed to alternate facts, that would be helpful. the president stated i have made an ironclad pledge to american families, we will always protect patients with preexisting conditions. did he make that statement? >> he did, and he believes it. >> there's not

does not cut medicare or medicaid. >> if it talks like a duck and walks like a duck it's a dud. the 5 billion dollar cut to medicare over tenure period of time per the presence budget also cuts social security disability by $24 billion, true? >> the budget has reforms to the disability insurance program to ensure people are getting off of a cyclic dependency in getting back into the workforce when they can get jobs in the national economy. that will result in 24 million. test 24 billion-dollar cut. >> we believe their savings to be had in people getting back to work and $7 billion in improper payments in the disability insurance program and that is reflected in our budget. >> if we can stick to the facts that would be helpful. during the president's state of the union address he stated i have made an ironclad pledge to american families we will always protect patients with pre-existing conditions. did he make that statement? >> you did. there's nothing in the 2021 budget that protects individuals from pre-existing conditions. >> there's a future proposal that is not reflected in

medicare. and for medicaid, 900 billion dollars. so if you're sitting at home at your kitchen table and you're a senior or your family on medicare, you're getting long-term care in your family budget, you are getting caught. two thirds of long-term care, two thirds of long-term care is a 45 medicaid. this is a middle cut benefit. those cuts endanger the health of seniors in the long-term care needs for them and their families these medicaid cuts also hurt local hospitals, people seeking opioid addiction treatment, veterans and their families more than 1 million veterans are on medicaid. 900 billion dollars cut from medicaid. at the same time the president supports fighting to overturn the affordable care act which has pre-existing condition benefits so important to all those families but in this budget, what could possibly be his motivation to cut all that money from the cdc at the time of the coronavirus and the threat that is putting money from the center for disease control using the full title of prevention elements of the good h

within 48 hours, he will say no medicaid cuts, no medicare cuts. do you run against a guy who on monday proposes medicare and medicaid cuts and then disowns them tuesday or wednesday as i am betting he will? >> you run on reality. that's how i closed that debate friday night. he is boasting about things with the economy and going down to mar-a-lago and telling his friends, you just got a lot richer. there are people in new hampshire and around the country that aren't feeling that prosperity. they are struggling to pay for their child care. they are struggling to fill their insulin prescription. there are major problems right now for a lot of people. that's why i figured out after sitting through that impeachment hearing and watching the bravery of some of my colleagues like mitt romney and doug jones that what this president lacks is empathy. that's why i came up with ending my debate with the story of fdr, that when he died, they put his body in the train and the regular guy is standing by the tracks and the reporter says, sir, did you know the pr

would be expensive. >> you say medicare for all with health insurance and for those who participate for go and you just mentioned at your ob/gyn i lose money on medicaid and medicare is breakeven and then i make my salary but if you take that away to salary or healthcare workers. with that ability to do your job and also so who will do all this work? because all those people in pharmacy who will be doing these jobs? the government will have to expand tremendously because there will be a whole new bureaucracy to pay doctors. my husband is an ophthalmologist up in vancouver and says i find it amazing people think it will be so amazing of the government pays their ability know how long it takes the government to pay me in november i have to go on vacation. it will be a disaster for pharmacists or those who work in hospitals, doctors, even for hospitals. a lot of rural hospitals will go out of business under a single-payer government system. >> and that is not what we need. we need more rural hospitals many times they have to travel many miles to find doctors and hospitals to get the latest treatment. >> you are from canada. being a canadian native you ha

medicare. after he stood in front of the house and said he wasn't. and from medicaid, $900 billion. so if you're sitting at home at your kitchen table and you're seeing -- you're a senior or there's a senior in your family ined me -- on medicare, you're getting cut. if there's long-term care in your family's budget, you are getting cut. 2/3 of long-term care, 2/3 of long-term care is paid for by medicaid. this is a middle class benefit. those cuts endanger the health of seniors and long-term care needs for them and their families. and these medicaid cuts also hurt rural hospitals, people seeking opioid addiction treatment, veterans and their families. more than a million veterans are on medicaid. $00 billion cut from medicaid -- $900 billion cut from medicaid. at the same time the president supports fighting to overturn the affordable care act, which s pre-existing condition benefits, so important to all of those families. in this budget, what could possibly be his motivation to cut all that money from the c.d.c. that you mentioned, at the time of the coronavirus? and the threat that

bernie's plan would wipe out the pentagon plan, medicaid, medicare, why not fix what we've got? point, obama officials would say bernie never got 60 votes for anything. >> melissa: i think that really it's about personality and who can bring out passion and we don't vote as americans on specific policies and i think that tonight many americans for the very first time are going to meet mike bloomberg and fall asleep while he's talking. if you live in new york and you've seen him, it is not a riveting performance, he's tweeting like crazy today and i would submit that he hasn't written a single one of those tweets, he's got somebody he's paid to tweet the same way he's paid people to go to everything else and when america meets him tonight i wouldn't be surprised if his number speak right here. >> dagen: i want to follow-up on what she was saying, you're right, he might be worth $63 billion. the last time i checked you can't get a personality transplant and hiserkiness is his own kryptonite. with all the money he's lot of n that stage and he's going to have to stand over his recor

. >> as it pertains to medicare and medicaid, medicare will grow by 6%. medicaid will grow by 3%. ms that are good government. the president has been very clear there will be no changes to the benefits of social security and medicare, and this budget complies with that promise to the american people. >> harris: i tell you, when you poll of the american public, health care and those details are things that matter. let's get into. richard fowler, fox news contributor. ford o'connell, civic for impact human. i was there with you on the facts are in. democrats are saying you would leave the u.s. economy in a shambles. it would be dead on arrival. >> president trump has made clear on several occasions he does not intend to touch social security work medicare. even with that point in the state of the union. chaos has broken out in the democratic primary. bernie sanders is a front runner, joe biden is basically on political life support. 61% of americans say their life is better off today than it was three years ago, which is the highest gallup has ever polled. this is a ploy by the democ

that would be medicare, medicaid, medicare advantage, veterans' health care in mayor medicare for all proposals that -- that would, i think, bankrupt all of government, but rip away all insurance products out there and make them illegal. so if you like your health insurance, you can say good-bye to it. some of these same people who can't count votes in iowa want to run your insurance and health care in america and i don't think that's really a good thing. . we stand here today opposing this resolution. saying this today resolution doesn't do anything anyway except make a statement. if you want to legislate, we can partners as we were on community health centers, on children's health insurance. let's go back to work, where it belongs, in the committee. reserve.er, i'll mr. chairman, do you -- mr. speaker -- mr. chairman, could ou find out if he has another speaker now? i see mr. scott on the floor. no. you're here for something else. that, mr. chairman, i would colleagues vote against this resolution and then let's back to work in the place best.policy is done with respect to those on

security, when in fact in his budget, the 220 budget he submitted, $2 trillion decreased in medicare and medicaid combined including in terms of social security, to reduce the disability benefit in social security. at the kitchen table of america's working families to serve these falsehoods. appalling also was what he was trying to discredit the triumph of the obama administration on the economy. a paper on this put out by the joint economic committee under leadership of don buyer, house vice chair on that and it talks about all the things -- to succinctly put it, when president obama came into office the unemployment rate was 10%. when he left it was 5%. donald trump did not inherit -- he inherited a momentous job creation. president obama came into office, 6000. when he left it was it 18,000. again, momentum the administration was able to pick up on. during eight years of obama's presidency he reduce the deficit by $1 trillion. instead this administration is increasing and with their tax cuts, tax scam, the benefits are going to the top one%. they increased the national debt by $2 trillion and

these other plans with solutions like adding a public option or allowing them to buy into medicare or medicai medicaid? >> 65 percent now support the public option but if you go back to when kamala harris said she i thought she could be the candidate but her candidacy dropped her waffling on medicare for all so she lost support and she is out senator warren of course up until very recently was a supporter of healthcare takeover now she says within the first 100 days i do the public option my third year it would be medicare for all so all of these people that has the government insurance plan in these exchanges they were the their government for medicare for all i think it's a complete lie we know that talking to people that senator warren joe biden pete buddha judge switch to the government option plan. even mayor pete has said that while he supports the public option if it doesn't work after couple of years that he would go to medicare for all. >> medicare for all is a misnomer because it should be called what it is a one-size-fits-all government run healthcare system. >> right a couple years ago a p

up next, a postdoctoral research associate at princeton university explores the history of medicaid and medicare states, explaining how discussions on universal health care have evolved since the 1960's. this interview was recorded at the annual american historical association meeting. host: george aumoithe is joining us from our studios in new york. thanks for being with us

there are no cuts to medicaid. medicare social security is totally protected as this president made clear time and time again. charles: some would say though at some point they have to be that the growth of them have to be more than slowed down if we are to get out of the deficit hole. it would seem like a adult conversation. perhaps not a good political conversation s this something the administration is trying to warm up to? >> there are common sense reforms, good government reforms had this budget, we hope they have bipartisan consensus. let me give you an example. $135 billion we can save as a result of lowering prescription drug prices for seniors. taxpayers would benefit and seniors of course would benefit. that is something speaker pelosi says the democrats support. we've provided something in this budget to reflect that we hope they come our way and put a bill that the president can support on his desk. charles: the, defense part, president trump is, he ran for president saying that he would shore up our defense, wh

americans living under an unaccountable president, who will cut taxes for corporations and then cut medicare, medicaid and social security for the rest of us, we must get this right. [applause] when people of color fear for their own place in their own country, while infants are torn from their parents at the border, we must get this right. [applause] and when a commander-in-chief pardons war criminals and punishes war heroes while systematically demolishing the credibility of our country in the eyes of the world, we dare not risk four more years of his presidency. we must get this right. [applause] >> we are clear eyed about the challenge before us. we must be equally clear about the choice at hand. share thetors and i same fundamental goals, bringing balance to our economy, guaranteeing health care to every american, combating a climate crisis and rising tide of gun violence. we differ in what we believe it will take to make that happen. in this election season, we have been told by some the must either before a revolution or for the status quo. where does that leave the rest of us? most americans d

i am on medicaid myself and downare and i get turned from doctors because doctors will not accept medicarer medicaid. need $5,000 right now to get work done on my body and i cannot get it. . find it is ridiculous it is terrible. host: would that make you more supportive of what bernie sanders or other democratic candidates are supporting? not.r: no, i am the economy has got to keep the prices of doctors are ridiculous. democrats say they are going to do something about it, do something about it and all they do is lie about it. on twitter, mylan has this about a previous collar. democratic socialism is your social security, medicare, and that benefits. a bit more on the story you read earlier. mayor pete heads out his looming hit, emphasizes how he will fight for the culinary workers union. the union critical of bernie sanders and from edward who tweets i am waiting for june, new jersey votes in june, sanders is my candidate. tony is on the independent line. caller: the reason i am calling as i hear so much misinformation. people have been brainwashed evil how people -- socialism is. guys s

benefits going to the top 1%, they increased the national debt by $2 trillion and they want to medicare and medicaid to try to pay for that. but we're not doing that. and then during the eight years of -- when president bush was president, the job growth was slow, under president obama we gained more than 14 million private sector jobs, and during his presidency, more than -- and that is far more in the pro rated in terms of years than what the president has created. a momentum, a path of $14 million is not a mess, mr. president. and then during his presidency, we rescued the auto industry and all that brought back to the economy. during the administration, more than 20 million people were afforded quality affordable health care and in addition to that, 150 million families with pre-existing conditions got a new benefit that enabled them to have access to health care as well as other benefits of no lifetime, no annual lift, child until 26 years old can stay on your benefit. bag woman, no longer a pre-existing condition. when the talks about making health care. the fact is, he did nothing. he did not

chairman and secretary a czar i would first start with the concerns about medicare or medicaid cuts then to transition what we talked about a number of times to improve people's quality of life and we have an opportunity to do that but first this is henry, nine years old he treats everybody with a big hug he loves performing and is in dance class and the challenges he is with a number of pre-existing conditions and as you can imagine he has been in and out of the hospital with a lot of challenges because of you don't have access to affordable health coverage was well before henry was one years old so in addition to the cuts of medicare and medicaid we are very concerned there is nothing that stops the ata going to the court to take away coverage on pre-existing conditions and everything else under the aca. i am very concerned when the court initially agrees with the fact the aca should be repealed the president tweeted great news for america not great news for henry. so i am concerned about that. and to make a difference of health services with those efforts around addiction and opioid t

there are cuts that benefit medicare they go to medicaid, absolutely. yes. >> both of you said campaign finance is a priority of yours. what do you make of the fact michael bloomberg is spending a billion dollars or more, -- [inaudible] is that good and opaque? >> look, both of us stand strongly under whole caucuses do from wanted to the other and we want to do everything we can to get rid of citizens united, we want to go back to the days of real campaign finance reform and we stand for that, plain and simple. and we will if we get the majority, if god willing the speaker keeps the majority as i think both have a good chance of happening, that will be a top priority. >> at the top priority for us now. we passed h.r. one, and h.r. one we did three things when we ran in 2018. for the people we said we would lower the cost of healthcare for america's families by lowering the cost of prescription drugs as we protected the pre-existing conditions benefits. lower health care, dichter paychecks by building infrastructure of america in ia greenway, a resilient

so the cuts on medicare and medicaid, i'm concerned about that that are in the budget. there's nothing that stops the lawsuit on the aca going through the courts that would take away coverage on pre-existing conditions and everything else under the aca. i'm very concerned that when the court initially agreed with the fact that the aca should be repealed, including pre-existing conditions, the president tweeted great news for america. not great news for henry. so i'm very, very concerned about that. the area we have the opportunity to work together and make a difference is in the area of mental health. when you said grants are not enough, you are right. we have champions around this committee for addiction and opioid treatment. it's a grant, and when the grant runs out, so sorry. the folks asked to do that in health care are the mentally ill and people with addiction. as you know, senator blunt and i, and now we have 12 members, democrats and republicans, we're expecting to add more people, we have a house bipartisan effort to expand an eight-state demonstration project
