MEDICAID: Developmentally disabled can’t meet work requirement

When discussing Medicaid Expansion it is a misleading half-truth for Idaho Legislators to state that there are, “70,000 able-bodied people on the expansion” for two major reasons. First, as an example, some of the able-bodied are developmentally disabled and you often see them already working the required 20 hours a week in places such as grocery stores bagging your groceries. They work hard. Many are not able to drive, so they walk or ride a bike to work. These able-bodied workers are not “unfit” which they would have to be unjustly declared by a doctor to qualify for Medicaid as per HB345. They have difficulties and need Medicaid Expansion services and HB345 could kick them off assistance.

MY TURN: KCRCC Town Hall melee

Mere minutes ago, I left the KCRCC sponsored legislative town hall meeting (Saturday, Feb. 22). My departure was abrupt and abbreviated by an unwillingness to be associated with the melee ensuing about half way through the presentations of the attending legislators. Roughly four and a half Idaho legislators were able to verbalize the bills they were working on and their concerning interests with only a few outbursts from the people attending. Tony Wisniewski was able to get about half way through his presentation describing his concern with the prevention of crossbreeding animal and human genes and the prevention of abortion before a female member of the audience erupted in anger. The interruption devolved into an ejection attempt that ultimately resulted in the woman being dragged out on her back, zip tied and missing a shoe.
