I attended a press conference to discuss the Rising Medicaid Costs hosted by the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty.

Wisconsin has made the right decision by not expanding Medicaid. We took a unique approach by ensuring we will have no coverage gap in our state. Right now, if you are at the federal poverty line or below it, you are automatically covered by BadgerCare or Medicaid. If you are low-income but above the federal poverty line, you can find a subsidized health plan on the federal exchange. Our approach has resulted in Wisconsin having one of the lowest number of uninsured citizens in the country.
