Earlier this week, we issued R. F. Meyer & Associates’ May 2025 e-newsletter. If you did not receive it by email, please find a link below to open it in PDF version from our website.
As we head into the Memorial Day holiday weekend, the newsletter presents three articles all related to cuts in federal funding for programs relied upon by older Americans.
Our May 2025 articles cover:
Cuts to Medicaid benefits may harm millions of older adults — Medicaid, a vital program providing health care for low-income individuals, is facing potential funding cuts that could significantly affect older adults and people with disabilities.
Could the Trump Admin privatize Social Security? — There is an ongoing debate about privatizing Social Security, with some advocating for individual ownership and market-based approaches, while others support maintaining its current structure.
What impact could the HHS downsizing have on older adults? — Recent restructuring at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is raising concerns among advocates and some lawmakers regarding their potential effects on older adults and people with disabilities.
These are just some of the issues and looming cuts under consideration for government benefits upon which millions of Americans now depend. We are sharing the information to enable you to get involved in the process, or start planning to deal with reduced or eliminated benefits.
