As our state struggles with rising premiums and limited coverage options, there is something Georgia can do to make healthcare more affordable right now: expand Medicaid. The legislature still refuses to expand Medicaid to 600,000 uninsured Georgians even though many veterans, children and people working two or three jobs are falling through the cracks. It is common sense to use our federal tax dollars to pay for our own healthcare instead of letting that money go to other states. But above all, expanding Medicaid to those who need it is simply the right thing to do.
