Texas Governor Greg Abbott has issued a sharp warning about proposed changes to Medicaid, claiming they could “strip millions of Americans” from access to healthcare. In February 2023, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a new proposed rule that would change long-standing practices for how states fund the non-federal share of Medicaid payments. In particular, the CMS is pushing for greater oversight of how states use of healthcare provider taxes to help fund their programs.

Democratic lawmakers Sen. Richard Blumenthal and Rep. Andy Kim have partnered up with Republican Rep. Jen Kiggans to introduce legislation aiming to give army reservists and members of the National Guard that also work for the federal government options on the type of health care plans they can receive. The bill, which could impact thousands of federal employees that are also in the U.S. Army, plans to give this group of Americans the ability to decide whether they want military or civilian health care. The lawmakers said in a shared statement that their proposal will fix current regulations that limit service members who also work for the government to enroll in the cheaper Tricare Reserve Select (TRS) health plan when they also qualify for federal health plans.

Stocks tanked last Friday after the big banks reported underwhelming earnings and the sheen from the Magnificent Seven’s AI-driven surge earlier this week wore off. Meanwhile, oil prices continue to rise near six-month highs as concern grows over geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. The tech sector was highlighted in this market, particularly due to the exceptional performance of a group of mega-cap tech giants last year nicknamed the “Magnificent Seven.” This elite group includes Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOGL), Meta Platforms (META), Microsoft (MSFT), Nvidia (NVDA) and Tesla (TSLA).
