Nationwide, rural hospitals are 6 times more likely to close in states that haven't expanded Medicaid. Kansas hospitals could stay open by expanding Medicaid.

Bizarro World: Law sez fund SPED at 92%. #ksleg leaders refuse but pass law setting up task force to study SPED. But Rep Kristey Williams, who refuses to fund SPED according to law, also refuses to convene task force cuz she sez SPED advocates want Lege to follow law #ksed
Representative Mari-Lynn Poskin@Poskin4KS

Rep Williams pushed for the Special Ed Task Force to become LAW in Kanas. Now she refuses to call the meeting required under the law, which would keep the report, required by law, from being made to the #ksleg…hmmmmm! #ksed 🍎🌻🍎 sunflowerstatejournal.com/movement-under…

@JohnRWhitmer @GovLauraKelly I don't believe this for a second, the FGA loves citing themselves as their own source. Second, while the reimbursement rates may be lower, it's better than the $0 payment the people in the gap can pay.

When rural hospitals close, the impact ripples through the community, hurting local businesses and workers while decreasing funds for our schools, roads, and parks. It's time the #ksleg work together to expand Medicaid and safeguard our rural hospitals.

We won’t go back. The people of Kansas said it last year, the people of Wisconsin said it earlier this year, and now the people of Ohio have said it again. A woman should have the right to make her own health care decisions, not politicians.

The Kansas Bureau of Investigation, Department of Revenue, Marion County Sheriff’s Office and the Office of the State Fire Marshal — along with the county attorney and a magistrate judge — were complicit in the Aug. 11 raid or knew it was imminent. #ksleg kansasreflector.com/2023/11/06/kan…

Medicaid expansion would ensure Kansas children and families have access to the medical, dental, and behavioral health services they need to grow and thrive.

@jaemoyerks Wouldn't it be wild if health insurance wasn't connected to your job at all, allowing people to work in careers/locations based on their skillset instead of having to worry about if their medications would still be covered at the new job/location? 🤯

Wikipedia says that the stretch of US-24 on the north side of Topeka, Kansas between US-75 and K-4 is named the "Charles Sheldon Trafficway" in his honor. So yeah, I need to learn more about this #WWJD Christian Socialist dude from Top City. Pretty cool!

Went down a rabbit hole just now. I'm always curious about where things came from, points of origin, who said it first, etc. #WWJD (What Would Jesus Do?) Who made that phrase popular? Where'd it come from?

Strange that medical insurance is an actual thing that exists in the known universe. They are an unnecessary middleman whose overarching economic incentive is to charge more and pay out less, wearing sick people down until they give up completely and pocket the cash.

Infuriating datapoint on why American medical care is so expensive: a single New Mexico oncology practice spends $350,000 a year fighting insurance company coverage denials. propublica.org/article/how-to…

There is no justifying what the #ksleg has done by refusing to pass #MedicaidExpansion. People are suffering while our supposed 'leaders' do nothing. Vote them out.
Alliance for a Healthy Kansas@HealthyKSOrg

A supermajority of Kansans-including health care providers & hospitals-agree: it's past time to expand Medicaid in Kansas. Most Kansans in the coverage gap work or are caretakers for children or family members. Why the delay? #ksleg #kansas #ExpandKanCare #kslegislature

Today is my first day not working for #KanCare and I begin my new adventure, still in a Medicaid related field, tomorrow! The #ksleg MUST @ExpandKanCare. And now that I no longer work there, expect me to be talking about #Medicaid even more than I do already 😉
