Summary

Republicans are targeting federal programs like Medicaid, SNAP, and TANF, which support millions of women by providing healthcare, food, and cash assistance.

Proposed cuts aim to reduce government spending but could disproportionately harm women, especially single mothers, women of color, and survivors of domestic violence.

Medicaid, a major target, covers over 40% of U.S. births and aids millions of low-income individuals, but states would likely struggle to replace lost funding.

Critics warn these cuts could deepen poverty, reduce access to essential services, and worsen economic insecurity for women nationwide.
