~~~
The governors also listened to a consultants report about the fiscal impact of a Medicaid overhaul on states. The report, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press, predicted that Medicaid reforms being proposed by House Republicans would result in tens of thousands of people losing their insurance coverage in an average-size state.
Inslee and Democratic Gov. Terry McAuliffe of Virginia called the report disturbing. Republican Gov. Matt Bevin of Kentucky said if Democrats were disturbed, they havent been paying attention.
I would counter that "paying attention" is why they are disturbed.

(39,304 posts)Is he going to cite them to back away from his promises?
Or is he just stupid enough to think they'll contribute anything of value - even to his base.

Rick Perry
Rick Snyder
Scott Walker
Rick Scott - double whammy
