Since Kansas has had the option to expand Medicaid, more than $7B of Kansan's own taxpayer dollars have been directed to other states to support their workers and their hospitals. Kansans' tax dollars should stay in Kansas — it's time to expand Medicaid.

We've passed $30M in new tax credits to offset child care costs for working families over the next five years. Parents must have access to quality, affordable child care in order to make Kansas the best place in the country to raise a family.

My new blog with veteran Medicaid public opinion researcher Mike Perry explains that Medicaid is very popular with voters and its future is at stake in this election yet we’ve heard little to nothing about it. ccf.georgetown.edu/2024/08/27/fut…

“With large cuts to federal health spending, it would be very hard for rural health-care providers to simply survive,” said Larry Levitt KFF "In many cases, rural hospitals are hanging by a thread already, and it wouldn’t take much to push them over the edge.”

Cuts to Medicaid will be devastating to rural hospitals and rural communities. Kansas has more financially vulnerable hospitals than any state in the country. 73% of Kansas hospitals had negative operating margins. Cutting a top payer source will crush rural hospitals.

New House Republican budget & tax options list confirms their agenda: massive cuts that take away or cut health coverage, food assistance, income assistance, and the EITC for millions of ppl in service to their profligate tax cuts for the wealthy & corps. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2025/0…
