Gov. Brownback vetoes bill to expand Medicaid

Kansas' Republican-controlled Legislature has approved an expansion of the state's Medicaid program under the federal Affordable Care Act.

The state Senate voted 25-14 on Tuesday for legislation that would expand state health coverage to thousands of poor adults. The House approved it last month on an 81-44 vote, meaning the measure now goes to conservative Republican Gov. Sam Brownback.

It would seem that since Obama care is not going to be repealed and here is to stay, Kansas might as well jump on the bus for the sake of the rural communities.
