BREAKING: The Mississippi House just passed Medicaid expansion by a 96-20 vote.
That’s more than enough to overcome a veto from Gov. Tate Reeves.
It now heads to the Senate.

The Mississippi bill text requested that the state file a Section 1115 waiver to expand Medicaid with work requirements but if that waiver is not approved (and it won’t be), the bill had a fall back option of a pretty bog standard Medicaid Expansion.
Will Mississippi beat Alabama?
(Sorry for falling off the face of the Earth, the combination of dissertating and job hunting has been exhausting)
