Today the #ksleg Senate took a vote on Medicaid expansion. Unfortunately, it failed to get the necessary 24 votes. We are grateful to the 18 senators who supported expansion in this vote. Please join us in saying THANK YOU!

Today, some #ksleg will assert Medicaid expansion is wrong for #Kansas . Strong body of research affirms the benefits; examples of 40 states can point the way. #expandKanCare

Addressing health needs of #Kansans requires more than one strategy--but to decline robust federal resources fully available to help the state cover more people doesn't add up. Good dialogue at Kansas Leadership Center in Wichita. #expandKanCare

There's a determined effort by #ksleg to inhibit discussion about expanding Medicaid coverage to help workers, families and health providers address unmet health needs. A healthy, productive workforce would be a win for everyone. #expandKanCare

Happy #NationalNursesWeek to all the KS nurses who keep Kansas healthy! Nearly 6,000 LPNs, LVNs, and nursing assistants in our state will benefit when we expand Medicaid in Kansas. What are we waiting for?

Holding my breath from gallery at #Kansas #Capitol as Senate reconvenes, leading to a vote on Medicaid expansion. Appreciate our REACH Healthcare Foundation partners who have gathered the stories of uninsured Kansans and made the case for the benefits of a healthy Kansas. #ExpandKanCare .

Our recent poll on Medicaid expansion shows strong support among Kansas small business owners, with 83% of those surveyed saying they would favor expanding Medicaid in Kansas. Learn more at tinyurl.com/49bn7ksa

Thank you Auburn-Washburn for the lovely music at the Capitol yesterday. KMEA #MIOSM

The performance gave me the opportunity to run into a friend from high school. His one question: how does Medicaid Expansion look?

Cheryl was a stay-at-home mom her whole life, and now is uninsured because her husband passed away. While waiting to qualify for Medicare, she was diagnosed with cancer. So many Kansans just like Cheryl live in the coverage gap. It's time to expand Medicaid.

Today, I joined Alliance for a Healthy Kansas’s Medicaid expansion rally to emphasize how Kansas would benefit from Medicaid expansion. Kansans, keep making your voices heard — write, call, or meet with your #ksleg -islator. We must get this done this session.

Packed house for the #ExpandKanCare rally in Topeka today! #ksleg

This is #TeacherAppreciationWeek ! DYK that ~3000 elementary, middle & high school teachers in Kansas would gain coverage under Medicaid expansion? Another 5,400 teaching assts & postsecondary teachers would also benefit.
