[Nfbmo] FW: Statement from Gov. Nixon on Senate's restoration offull funding for health care program for needy, blind Missourians

[Bryan Schulz]

hi,

did the governor think we wouldn't remember the original number or where did the 28 million number come from?
26.35 mil is still better than zero but the entire last four month battle was not necessary without flanigan and sylvie.

  Statement from Gov. Nixon on Senate's restoration of full funding for health
  care program for needy, blind Missourians

   

  JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - Gov. Jay Nixon today issued the following statement
  regarding the vote by the Missouri Senate to restore full funding for the
  state's health care program for needy, blind Missourians:

   

  "I commend the Missouri Senate for adopting Sen. Jim Lembke's amendment to
  restore full funding for the state's health care program for needy, blind
  Missourians.  For decades, Missouri has provided this efficient and
  compassionate program that offers essential health care services for blind
  Missourians with very limited financial means.  I urge the General Assembly
  to send me a budget that maintains full funding for this vital lifeline."
