Today marks an extraordinary milestone for rural health care in America. The Trump Administration announced funding awards to states through the Rural Health Transformation Program- an unprecedented $50 billion investment established by Republicans under President Trump's Working Families Tax Cuts legislation.
This historic initiative, which every single Democrat voted AGAINST, represents the largest federal investment in rural health care in American history. Access to quality care should not be determined by your zip code. Today's announcement highlights the Trump Administration's commitment to strengthening the rural health workforce, modernizing facilities and technology, and deploying innovative care models that bring high-quality health services to rural communities nationwide.
