From the transcript

It—. This, this award provides roughly $1.4 billion over 5 years for Alaska healthcare innovation. And let me repeat what I said last year at AFN: this legislation doesn't cut Social Security funding, doesn't cut Medicare funding, and does not cut Medicaid funding. But for too long, D.C., in terms of healthcare, has imposed a one-size-fits-all approach to healthcare designed in D.C., imposed on states where it doesn't work. This program flips that model.
