Having fought for rural healthcare for years, I know just how vital local access is to our communities. President Trump promised to stand with rural America, and this investment shows he’s delivering. Getting the Rural Health Transformation Program across the finish line in the Working Families Tax Cuts Act means our families are going to be taken care of. Plain and simple, this is a giant win for our state,” said Senator Jim Justice . BACKGROUND: This investment was made possible by the Working Families Tax Cuts, passed by Republicans in Congress.
