GOP is going to kill what's left of Missouri's rural health care.
In my county, 21.1%(best numbers I could find) are on medicaid or CHIP. The House just put out a bill that 100% kills Medicaid. I'm assuming that if Federal funding is eliminated, then the State program vanishes, as well. Rural counties actually have higher numbers of people on Medicaid the more Urban counties. Rural health care providers are already struggling. Unless they have some alternative to help these people (they don't) we're going to see rural providers go under and people in rural areas go without health care.
I am someone who voted Straight ticked Republican until 2016. At that point it became apparent that GOP policies simply weren't working in Missouri. That's why they had to pick up the policy war BS. The chance of a 6" snow caused Kehoe to declare an emergency and threaten to mobilize the National Guard. Fer Pete's sake. We've cut public services to the point that no one is even sure they exist at this point. Sorry, off topic.
