Rep. Don Scott to discuss threats to Medicaid in Norfolk
NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) — Virginia House Speaker Don Scott will join other advocates for reproductive freedom in Norfolk on Friday to speak about the threat to Medicaid. The stop at the Slover Library is the final stop of a statewide tour called 'Protect our Medicaid.' The goal of the tour, according to a release, is to raise awareness of the threat cuts to Medicaid could have on Virginia families. Those with the Protect our Medicaid group said the federal cuts to Medicaid under the Trump Administration's 'Big, Beautiful Bill' could cause over 250,000 Virginians to lose their healthcare, with nearly 47,000 veterans alone in the state covered by Medicaid. The bill includes a proposed $625 million cut in Medicaid — which could cause 7.6 million people nationwide to lose health coverage in less than a decade, according to budget analysis. A release from the group states that Medicaid is the largest source of funding for home care in the United States, with home care for older adults and people with disabilities rising across the country. GOP bill raises fears of major reduction in home care for seniors, disabled The discussion will address how cuts to both Medicaid and Planned Parenthood can impact the Hampton Roads regional economy and how it will harm Virginia families. The Protect our Medicaid tour is expected to be held in the third floor at the Slover Library starting at 11 a.m. Continue to check for updates. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
