Low-income Americans who rely on subsidized health care services under the federal government's Affordable Care Act (ACA) are now worried due to potential Medicaid cutbacks.

Medicaid allowed people like Freida Lockaby, an unemployed 56-year-old woman from Manchester, Kentucky, to get health care under the state-federal insurance program for free. It allowed her to get free treatment for a thyroid as well as eye disorders. She called the program a "godsend" to her.
