The Senate drew a hard line that it would only agree to an expansion plan that contained work requirements — a stance that could at the least delay expanded coverage, perhaps for years, or prevent it from ever happening. mississippitoday.org/2024/04/29/mis…
With minutes to spare before a Monday-night deadline, House negotiators conceded a Senate demand that Medicaid expansion would include a strict work requirement for those covered — a requirement not likely to be approved by the federal government. buff.ly/3UBL9hS
House and Senate leaders remain at odds over a work requirement for expanded Medicaid coverage, which the federal government is highly unlikely to approve. The two chambers face an 8 p.m. deadline today to submit an initial compromise.

The Medicaid expansion negotiation now comes down to one last hurdle: the work requirement. Reminder: The feds will not approve a work requirement, and previous work requirements didn't improve the workforce and were very costly to enforce. More context: mississippitoday.org/2024/04/18/del…

This is a story of good, old-fashioned political engagement. If you don't like what your elected officials are doing (or not doing), show up at their office. If they don't come to the door, find another way to get to them. Stay involved. Tell your story. mississippitoday.org/2024/04/27/med…
Update: After a group of physicians and concerned citizens visited Sen. Kevin Blackwell’s office in the basement of the Capitol yesterday to advocate for full expand Medicaid, the basement entrance has a brand new sign barring the public from reaching those offices.

The movement by Senate leaders to cover those earning up to 138% of the federal poverty level is a major step in finally reaching agreement to adopt a Medicaid expansion program as 40 other states have done to cover primarily the working poor. mississippitoday.org/2024/04/26/mis…
I'm thrilled that @mrsimon22, @agnel88_philip and I are Livingston Award finalists for our reporting on how Mississippi routinely jails people who are not accused of any crime, solely because they may be mentally ill. wallacehouse.umich.edu/livingston-awa…
I really forgot how reporting at the Capitol is just constantly being gaslit and feeling like you’re living in an alternate universe. Major props to all you full time political reporters out there

“Everybody’s got heartburn over people ‘getting something they don’t deserve,’” Gentry said. “But these people get free care anyways. They’re getting it from the emergency room ... it’s uncompensated care ... the most expensive way to get care possible." mississippitoday.org/2024/04/18/sel…
The most prominent Mississippi Republican to express openness to Medicaid expansion for years has become the biggest roadblock to its passing. My editorial about Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann’s dug-in position that threatens to kill the entire proposal: mississippitoday.org/2024/04/18/del…
