Three Democratic senators asked the country’s top nonpartisan government watchdog on Tuesday to investigate the costs of a Georgia program that requires some people to work to receive Medicaid coverage.
On Thursday, July 11, U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock introduced legislation that would temporarily relieve the thousands of Georgians stuck in the Medicaid coverage gap.
More than a million people could get health care if these states would pass laws expanding Medicaid. Most residents want the expansion but entrenched politics stands in the way.
