3 Michigan hospitals ‘at risk’ of closing due to Trump Medicaid cuts

UNC researchers identified three Michigan hospitals among 300+ nationwide that may not survive Medicaid cuts recently signed by President Donald Trump.Since House Republicans have been in charge of the budget process, they have failed students, schools and teachers.

Session today was no attendance and no voting while there still has not been serious movement on a state education budget. This uncertainty creates real problems for school districts around the state who are currently planning for the upcoming year.
