Medicaid expansion
Please pass this bill!
SB 604 & HB 290 Obamacare Medicaid implementation
Legislators - If you won't see that the people to be covered by these provisions at least DON'T STAND IN THE WAY of the "feds" doing it.
AND Legislators - Lead, Follow, or get the H--- out of the way and select a channel other than Fox "News" on the Capitol Hill TVs.
