Governor Evers will include the federal expansion of Medicaid in his budget, and Outagamie County’s leader wants it to become a reality.
Majority Republicans oppose taking the funding from the federal health care reform law.
County Executive Tom Nelson joined Citizen Action of Wisconsin this morning to talk about the issue in downtown Appleton. He says the state has missed out on about $1 billion so far.
Nelson thinks there are families living just above the poverty line that need better access to health care.
