Earlier this month the U.S. House of Representatives passed a major new tax and spending bill that not only represents the largest cuts to Medicaid and SNAP in history, taking away SNAP and Medicaid benefits from millions of recipients including tens of thousands in West Virginia, but also includes tax provisions that would overwhelmingly favor the richest taxpayers in the state. For working-class West Virginians, the tax cuts in the House bill are extremely modest and are easily offset by the losses of Medicaid coverage and SNAP benefits.
