Another Medicaid expansion effort died Wednesday at the hands of a state
Senate panel.
.
Voting largely along party lines, the Senate Health and Welfare Committee
voted 5-3 to defer action on a measure calling for a statewide vote on the
issue.
.
Senate Bill 10 sought to amend the Louisiana Constitution to require the
state health agency to expand state Medicaid eligibility to 138 percent of
the federal poverty level. Thats $27,700 for a family of three.
.
The hearing room was packed with supporters of Senate Bill 10, which would
have allowed Louisiana voters to decide if the state would accept a key
component of President Barack Obamas signature Affordable Care Act.
Republicans on the national level have promised to repeal what they call
Obamacare and Gov. Bobby Jindal has steadfastly refused to change or
expand the income qualifications that would allow government-run Medicaid
to expand and allow about 250,000 uninsured Louisiana residents who make
too much money to qualify for the government-run insurance, but too little
to buy coverage in the private market.

.
The Medicaid expansion is part of the federal Affordable Care Act. No one
testified against the proposition.
.
Petersons is the latest legislative defeat of expansion proposals which
have been heard by House and Senate Health and Welfare Committees.
.
Nobody testified against Medicaid expansion during the two and half hour
hearing. But Jindals office Americans for Prosperity, whose foundation
board is chaired by one of the Koch brothers, a major funder for GOP
causes and the National Federation of Independent Business all informed
the committee of their opposition but chose not to testify.
