[Nfbmo] Medicaid "transformation" bill to be introduced; Medicaid Expansion bill to be heard

[Bryan Schulz]

hi,

i tried to read the bill text and it is very confusing when many lines tell 
you to go read something else.
if you are going to send this stuff, you need to give a short explanation of 
what is changing or how it affects us.
