Expand Medicaid in Michigan

Michigan legislators did not include Medicaid Expansion in next year’s budget but there is still an opportunity for Michigan to expand Medicaid to cover adults up to 138% of poverty.

You can go to Michigan for Consumers for Healthcare  and use their action alert system to send a letter to your legislators.
