The United States Supreme Court on Thursday called off upcoming arguments over a Donald Trump-era plan to impose work requirements on Medicaid recipients after the Biden administration said it was considering scrapping the policy, the Hill reports.
Arguments had been slated for March 29, but were removed from the court calendar after the Biden administration asked the justices last month to put the case on hold while it undertook a policy review.
In a court brief seen by The Hill, the administration said it had made a preliminary determination that placing work requirements on Medicaid benefits was at odds with the goal of providing healthcare to low-income people.
