With rising costs impacting every Mississippian, expanding Medicaid is an investment in a healthier, more prosperous future for our state.
Medicaid expansion is a common sense solution to support hardworking individuals in the coverage gap, like many farmers, veterans and small business owners. It helps stabilize rural hospitals, which are the backbone of our communities, providing critical care and supporting jobs. Medicaid expansion keeps taxpayer dollars in Mississippi, reduces the burden of covering uninsured residents, and brings billions in federal funding back to our state to support our families and economy.
