Senator Marshall Joins Newsmax to Discuss President Trump’s One Big, Beautiful Bill and the Justice for Angel Families Act

Washington – U.S. Senator Roger Marshall, M.D. (R-Kansas) today joined Sharla McBride and Marc Lotter on Newsmax to discuss the Justice for Angel Families Act, legislation that would amend the Crime Victims Fund (CVF) to expand financial coverage for Angel Families – the immediate relatives of victims killed by illegal aliens, including in drunk driving accidents. This legislation would allow federal funds to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and funeral costs, easing the financial burden on grieving families.

They also discussed President Trump’s “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” and what’s next for the reconciliation process.

Highlights from the interview include:

On what’s next for the reconciliation process:

Senator Marshall: “I think we should stop and just congratulate President Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson, Chairman Jason Smith, over there, for getting the ball this far. They need to get this across the finish line. Let’s give them a little bit of air space. Then let’s bring it over here, and let’s see if we can find some more savings for American families to pay for some of President Trump’s priorities… no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security. This bill will be written to help out those middle-class, hardworking Americans who take a lunch pail to work. So, it’s our job to improve it, and then we’ll send it back there.”

On saving Medicaid and Medicare for vulnerable Americans:

Senator Marshall: “Our hope is that we save Medicaid, that we strengthen Medicaid for those who need it the most. Now, if you’re an illegal alien in California on Medicaid, the federal government shouldn’t pay for that. I think that’s just one very simple example. If you’re a person who’s getting Medicaid from two different states, that’s not right either.

“There’s a lot of fraud, waste, and abuse in Medicaid. We’ve seen Medicaid grow 50% in five years. Over 90 million Americans are now on Medicaid – not Medicare. We’re not touching Medicare. We are trying to strengthen Medicaid for those who need it the most.”

On the need for the Justice for Angels Families Act:

Senator Marshall: “Well, I wish we could find a Democrat that will support it, but I just want to emphasize why this is so important. When anyone dies an unnatural death, it’s a tragedy. But when a loved one is murdered, when they’re murdered by an illegal alien when they’re hit, killed by a drunken driver, you know, it’s just a deeper kick in the gut.

“… These Angel Families, we just want to help them bury their loved one. If they had health care costs that we want to help with that a little bit as well. I think it’s the least we could do.”
