Democrats work on Mississippi Medicaid expansion proposal
Mississippi legislative Democrats say they’re working on proposals to keep Medicaid alive and funded in the budget year that starts July 1.
They say they’re doing this in case Republican Gov. Phil Bryant calls a special session before the end of June.
However, Bryant said last week he believes he can run Medicaid without legislative authorization — even with no budget in place.
