During Missouri's primary, voters collectively gathered and voted to become the 39th state to expand Medicaid -- joining our neighbors in Colorado, Nebraska, and Oklahoma.
Now, every single Kansas voter must ask themselves why, year after year, Republican leadership in the Legislature has blocked expansion. Instead of working to grant more than 150,000 Kansans access to affordable health care during a global pandemic, they've turned Medicaid expansion into a political game.
Republican leadership in the Legislature must stop playing politics with Kansans’ lives and support Medicaid expansion. I've worked closely with Republicans in the past to get things done, and passing Medicaid expansion should be no different.
It's long past time to pass Medicaid expansion in Kansas. Add your name if you agree.
Thank you,
