Biden's Record on Pandemic Welfare Expansion

The podcast delves into recent attempts to rewrite Biden's record on pandemic welfare expansion. Despite claims that Biden wanted to preserve the pandemic welfare state, evidence suggests otherwise. Looking at Biden's budget and statements of administration policy, there is no indication of his desire to make Medicaid expansion permanent. Furthermore, Biden allowed the Republicans to push for the undoing of Medicaid expansion in the year-end appropriations package, showing his lack of effort to preserve the program. The podcast argues that blaming just Republicans or Congress ignores Biden's actions and lack of leadership on this issue.
