hopefully. more details show it seems to be a smaller cut to CHIP and not the $15B I had originally read.
Nearly half of the $15 billion — $7 billion — will come from two accounts in the Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP). The White House sees the cuts as uncontroversial because the money represents unspent funds from expired programs, such as a fund to reimburse some state expenses in fiscal 2017.
“This is not a situation where someone is making a proposal that would harm the program in any way,” said the official.
