Native America Calling - Tuesday, July 8, 2025 – Residents brace for Medicaid and food assistance cuts
The Congressional Budget Office estimates the spending bill just signed by President Donald Trump will increase the number of people without health insurance by 16 million over the next ten years. The $1.1 trillion cuts to Medicaid will also affect Native Americans who rely on it to pay for health care through the Indian Health Service and threatens rural hospitals with a high rate of Medicaid-dependent patients. The new spending plan also substantially reduces the number of people who will collect food assistance through the federal government. We’ll get insights on what these numbers mean for Native Americans who disproportionately rely on these two federal government programs.
We’ll also find out about the significance of the new Indigenous head of Mexico’s Supreme Court.

A.C. Locklear (Lumbee), CEO of National Indian Health Board
Aaron Payment (Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians), tribal councilman and former chairperson for the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians
Kelli Case (Chickasaw), senior staff attorney for the Indigenous Food and Agriculture Initiative
