Why we checked itSpecific projection about Medicaid coverage losses in New Hampshire — verifiable against CBO or state Medicaid estimates
What we foundThe NH Fiscal Policy Institute's October 2026 report projects that 23,000 to 29,000 adults could lose Medicaid coverage by 2028, and a KFF analysis estimated up to 29,000 for New Hampshire, so "thirty thousand" is the top of the estimates, rounded.
CorrectedCorrection: Originally rated Overstated. Rating changed to Supported following post-debate review: the estimates run from 23,000 to 29,000, so thirty thousand is the high estimate, rounded. The evidence is unchanged; the summary was rewritten to match.
