Killing Americans... why Bobby Jindal needs to stop his lies regarding Medicaid

The number of uninsured Americans in red states that have opted out of the ACA's Medicaid expansion is 50% higher than in states that embraced the Medicaid expansion. LINK

And for what, really does Jindal continue to reject Medicaid expansion except that he's butthurt that his Party lost the Obamacare battle? Jindal's stated reasons for refusing $1.65 billion in Federal aid (when Louisiana taxpayers are footing the bill along with the rest of the country) and denying coverage to 242,000 Louisianians are all hogwash.

For example, Jindal states that accepting the Medicaid expansion amounts to discrimination against Americans with disabilities when many of them, too, would benefit from the expansion with better programs and services, and when the ACA does not reduce the funding or state management rules of those in that category.

His objection then boils down to one fact that annoys him: that more people in Louisiana would be covered at government expense. That's an ideological rather than a practical objection, one that has flown the coop when most of the rest of America is all too willing to accept the upside of the ACA.

Call Jindal's office and ask him to stop his lies about the ACA's medical expansion. I already have.
