AND IT'S NOT ONLY MEDICAID, EITHER

Earlier, I mentioned the intent of Jeb! and his Republican partners to "reform" Medicaid, and the other day let you know that the state's Department of Children and Families was closing offices throughout the state in the name of "effeciency". All of this will likely --- and in the latter case already has --- result in hardships for clients and added out-of-pocket expenses which many simply cannot afford.

Now up to 49,000 families will lose their KidCare benefits as of Wednesday. That's 80,000 children no longer eligible for the doctor visits, perscriptions, and dental care for the $15 per month family premium.
