Statement by Eric Linzer, HPA President and CEO

“Today’s passage of the ‘One Big Beautiful Bill Act’ slashes funding for Medicaid and the Essential Plan, threatening the coverage for individuals who rely on these programs. It will increase the number of uninsured, result in higher premiums for those who remain covered and will be devastating for the health care system and all New Yorkers.”
