Medicaid enrollment was cut.

By Congress, not Biden, though the Consolidated Appropriations Act as a demand by Republicans.

The monthly paid out child tax cut extension was ended.

Again Republicans voted against the reauthorization because they didn't want to hand Democrats a "win".

Mandated Paid Sick Leave ended.

This was only ever intended to be temporary as it only applies when there was federal or state quarantine in effect. Democrats in the House introduced the Healthy Families Act which would guarantee all workers 7 sick days a year. The act was filibustered by Republicans in the Senate.

Democrats are not the problem here.

no amount of facts are going to sway the 'but both SIDES BAD UNNHH' no matter how much you try to rub the data in their stupid faces.

A plurality of morons voted directly against their own best interests or there was some gigantic, undetectable fraud. Either way, country's fucked.
