On Health Care: Not in favor of funding Medicaid expansion

Missouri voters amended the state Constitution to extend eligibility for Medicaid to thousands more low-income adults under Obama's national health care law. But Schatz told reporters that voters didn't get to weigh in on how to fund the expansion. "Without that, I'm not advocating that we would fund Medicaid expansion," Schatz said. "I think if voters had the opportunity to choose--given all the information--I don't believe they would have overwhelmingly passed Medicaid expansion."
