The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) is blistering at a proposed regulation that would prevent the union from siphoning fees from American workers’ Medicaid payments.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services announced a proposed rule Tuesday that would require Medicaid payments to go directly to healthcare workers, ending a 2014 Obama-era rule that let third parties, such as unions and insurance companies, skim off a share of the paycheck before the worker saw any of it.
The SEIU, one of the largest public-sector unions in the U.S., referred to the proposed rule “as part of the [Trump] administration’s broad, coordinated attack against working people.”

The $$$$ go’s directly to the Libtard coffers.
I was absolutely unaware and APPALLED! I read yesterday it was $200 million last year alone!
Boy, does this steam me, they could just skim this off (I thought skimming was for thousands of dollars, not millions!)
Grrrrrr...it is stuff like this that makes me hate unions with a white hot passion.
I hate the SEIU.
Screw them over every way possible, them stomp and pee on the dead remains.
This is HUGE.
Winning!
End the Shakedown, end all Union Shop laws and forced payment schemes.
Trump is righting a wrong. Union workers should be thankful.
This is what happens with big government. No oversight, sneaky deals.
TG for POTUS
Could add another 1-2 % of Trump’s support from POC. Enough to put him over the top I hope.

Agree. This former union steward applauds POTUS for cutting this skimming off.
I was unaware of this too and was disgusted.
The founders said Obama could not be President.
We did not listen.
One is only naturally a citizen when one is born with only one nationality.
Obama told us he was born a British subject.
You begin to wonder if two terms of Donald J. Trump will be enough to undo all this $hit? Particularly when the GOPE is a willing participant in the abetting of these skimming schemes, which are nothing more than semi-legalized theft of government funds.
“as part of the [Trump] administration’s broad, coordinated attack against working people.”

It seems to be a help to working people and an attack against thug unions to me.
Reality is exactly the opposite of what the union thug said. Trump is helping the worker.
This is the first I have heard of this. Outrageous!!!!!!
Reminds me of the definition of "politics". From the latin "Poly" meaning "many or multiple" and "tic" from tick..a blood sucking parasite.
I’m gobsmacked this was even allowed to begin with! Docs get shut down all the time for skimming medicaid.
