Congress and the Obama Administration are discussing a deficit-reduction proposal that would cut federal GME support by up to 60 percent — $60 billion — and jeopardize residency training programs across the country. Congress is expected to finalize its multi-trillion-dollar package of program cuts in the next few days.
