Senate votes to pass Medicaid bill
SUMMARY: Nolan is reporting live from the State Capitol on the Medicaid expansion bill that passed in the Senate, but with a more conservative approach that only expands coverage to around 80,000 Mississippians. Pro-expansion lawmakers are not satisfied with this version and consider it unacceptable. However, many are glad the bill is still alive, especially since it passed with a veto-proof majority. Governor Tate Reeves opposes any Medicaid expansion bills and is willing to fight against them. Lawmakers from both chambers are planning to work on developing an agreement during a committee conference later this session that will require a two-thirds majority in favor.
