In top news, Medicaid 00:06:44.920 --> 00:06:47.639 may not hold the same political weight as Social 00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:51.240 Security, but it is a crucial issue akin to a 00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:55.699 Costco hot dog. Covering nearly 80 million Americans, 00:06:55.860 --> 00:06:59.259 mostly with low incomes, Medicaid and the Children's 00:06:59.259 --> 00:07:01.959 Health Insurance Program account for about one 00:07:01.959 --> 00:07:04.819 -tenth of the annual United States budget and 00:07:04.819 --> 00:07:08.319 18 % of total health care spending, totaling 00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:12.879 nearly $800 billion per year.

He emphasized, 00:07:26.779 --> 00:07:29.930 we're not changing Medicaid. and we're not changing 00:07:29.930 --> 00:07:35.209 Medicare.
