	Description:		The Medicaid budget just lost about $1 trillion. Eleven million more Americans will go uninsured, the CBO estimates, and those who remain Medicaid-eligible may lose coverage for "optional" services. That could include in-home health care recipients, like 9-year-old Noah. In this episode, we talk with his mom, who lobbied Congress to vote against the bill. Plus: An environmentalist makes a case for solar power, and why the Fed will rely on data — not the whims of the stock market or President Trump — to make its next rate cut decision.
