Vivianna,
Why do you believe it's necessary to publically chastise me for an e-mail
that I forward? Perhaps I should refrain from sending anything to the list?
Sounds like a good idea to me!

> Jefferson City, MO - A diverse coalition of Missouri's health care

> The Affordable Care Act contained a provision for states to expand
> their health care programs for low-income residents, but state
> legislatures must take action to do so. Missouri would pay nothing to
> make the change in the first three years and in most of the years
> following that will likely make up its share with cuts to other health
> care programs that are no longer needed and new revenue from the jobs
created by the expansion.
>
>
>
> This influx of health care dollars is expected to create 24,000
> Missouri jobs in the first year alone and may prove a lifeline for
> dozens of rural hospitals and clinics that operate in underserved areas.
