Gina Mitten @gcmitts.bsky.social · 29/04/2025I (& other Dems) filed #Medicaid expansion proposals, as did at least one GOP Rep. But bc #MoLeg's GOP majority refused to move any expansion bill forward, MO ended up being 1 of 3 states with expansion in its constitution - with serious ramifications should federal Medicaid funding decrease. 000

Gina Mitten @gcmitts.bsky.social · 02/03/2025The role of an elected board (or legislator) is NOT to rubber stamp what is presented. School board members (and all electeds) should be ENCOURAGED to ask questions to gain a full understanding of the mounds of info that can be presented. 000
Gina Mitten @gcmitts.bsky.social · 26/02/2025Because MoLeg would not expand Medicaid itself (I was ranking member of a 2013 traveling committee & spent YEARS working on it), and because MoLeg has an awful history of overturning voters' will on statutory changes by initiative petition, Medicaid expansion is a constitutional requirement. 000
