Ernie Dumas makes an interesting point about the state’s current discussion on Medicaid expansion: if it were a president who’s name didn’t end with Obama, would we even be having this argument?
To think our very own, Wilbur Mills, former long serving chair of Ways and Means, was the primary force behind the creation of Medicaid, and the 89th Arkansas General Assembly can’t accept the fact it could be a goodly thing to cover an additional 250,000 of our neighbors.
Mike Huckabee didn’t have a problem with covering 350,000 more kids.
