Most are already working.

"Most" Is "Most" all of them? What percentage of the 20 million is "most"?

Nearly two-thirds of adults ages 19-64 covered by Medicaid were working and nearly three in ten were not working because of caregiving responsibilities, illness or disability, or due to school attendance, reasons that counted as qualifying exemptions from the work requirements under previous policies.

This is a nice stat but doesn't address the contention: how many of these people are a) not working b) could be working but aren't and c) losing their health insurance?

Based on the data, only a small share of Medicaid adults were not meeting work requirements or would not have qualified for an exemption qualifying exemptions: however, many more Medicaid enrollees who would remain eligible would be at risk of losing coverage because of the administrative burden and red tape related to reporting requirements.

Uh, huh. So it's not really 20M, then is it?
And it seems like an enterprising political party interested in helping people would put effort behind reducing red tape. Have the democrats initiated anything like this?

Seaborn said he had logged his work hours into the online system once a month as required. But his benefits were canceled after he failed to complete a new form that he said the state had added without adequate warning. Seaborn said the form asked for the same information he had been submitting every month, just in a different format.

So this has nothing to do with the BBB and is a state of Georgia thing. Thanks, that takes care of this anedocte.

Dude, you're in a cult

And you're losing your grasp on the details. Maybe slow down a bit.
