Today, a growing coalition of Mississippi doctors, nurses, patients, small business owners, non-profit organizations, health advocates, and hospitals launched a statewide campaign to put Medicaid expansion on the ballot.
After waiting a decade for state politicians to fix a problem that has left more than 200,000 hardworking Mississippians without healthcare, the medical community and voters across the state declared they had waited long enough, kicking off what is expected to be one of the largest, broadest, non-partisan ballot campaigns in the state’s history.
