The Trump administration is cutting most of the funding for a program that helps people sign up for Obamacare. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid announced they will provide only $10,000,000 for the navigator program when the next enrollment period begins this fall. That's down from nearly $37,000,000 last year. It coincides with a 90% cut in the advertising budget for Obamacare. It's the latest in a series of moves by the White House to weaken the Affordable Care Act.
