Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) says he would not do severe cuts to Medicaid .

He said he agreed with Steve Bannon's comments that the right “can’t just take a meat axe” to the program because it also benefits low-income Trump supporters.

Hawley ’s objection will be yet another complication for Republicans as they seek to enact Trump 's legislative agenda and extend his tax cuts.
