New Jersey cancels $100M in medical debt

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy (D) announced Wednesday the state would cancel $100 million in medical debt for nearly 50,000 residents.“Medical debt can follow someone for decades. We are wiping the slate clean for thousands and making a real impact on their lives,” Murphy posted on the social platform X.Nearly 18,000 New Jersey residents owned $61.6 million to Prime Healthcare hospitals, and more than 31,000 people owed more than $38.4 million to other providers like collections agencies, according to the nonprofit.“When someone is sick or injured, they should be able to focus on what matters most — getting better — rather than worrying about how they will pay for the life-saving care and services rendered to them,” Murphy said in a statement.

Trump Proposes 20% Tariffs On All Imported Goods

Trump on Wednesday appeared to open the door to significantly expanding his plans to impose sweeping new tariffs if he returns to office, suggesting an escalation in proposals that many experts already see as likely to cause a global trade war.“We’re going to have 10 to 20 percent tariffs on foreign countries that have been ripping us off for years,” Trump said Wednesday. “We’re going to charge them 10 to 20 percent to come in and take advantage of our country.”The Trump campaign sought to play down the significance of the comment and said the former president did not specify that the 20 percent tariff would apply to all nations. A 10 percent universal tariff, coupled with a tariff of as much as 60 percent on China that Trump has also eyed, would cost a typical middle-income household roughly $1,700 per year, according to the Peterson Institute for International Economics, a pro-trade Washington-based think tank. Doubling that would increase its costs to U.S. households, while probably doing more to shield domestic producers from foreign competition.
