Even with tweaks, the Senate plan would still cut health and food assistance, leave millions uninsured, and leave states struggling to fill the gaps.

News: Sen. Rick Scott amendment lowering federal match for Medicaid expansion has been filed. Would be "grandfathering" in beneficiaries until 2030 at 90 percent match, lower state-specific rate kicks in in 2031. Cost savings of $313 billion full copy: cdn.sanity.io/files/ifn0l6bs…

New @CenterOnBudget analysis on the Scott Amendment—the “grandfathering” here is a mirage. “We estimate that after five years, only 8% of expansion enrollees would still be subject to the 90% matching rate, effectively phasing out the higher matching rate in only a few years.”

More than 1 million veterans in the U.S. are uninsured. Of those uninsured veterans, 4 in 10 fall in the coverage gap. Kansas needs to Expand Medicaid so our veterans can have access to affordable health insurance. #ExpandKanCare #ksleg #kansas #VeteransLivesMatter

51% of voters in Kansas considered Medicaid expansion as highly or extremely important when casting their ballots. They know that expanding Medicaid would help bring down health care costs for every Kansan.
