Overview

• On CBS Mornings, Sen. Elizabeth Warren called Republican assertions that Democrats want to give undocumented immigrants taxpayer-funded Medicare or Medicaid a "flat-out lie."
• CBS anchor Tony Dokoupil noted reporting that Democrats' counteroffer would restore certain Medicaid benefits for some noncitizens removed in a GOP bill, a point Republicans cite to attack the proposal.
• Warren said the change concerns returning hospital and home health reimbursement rates to prior levels and does not expand eligibility for undocumented immigrants who receive emergency care under existing law.
• Congress remains deadlocked on funding, with federal employees told to miss work and possible furloughs and layoffs looming as both parties blame the other for refusing to negotiate.
• President Donald Trump posted that he would meet Russ Vought of Project 2025 to recommend which agencies to cut and whether those cuts would be temporary or permanent.
