Republican lawmakers in the Missouri House have voted not to pay for the expansion, drawing criticism that they're going against the will of the people.

The voters spoke their mind about this and its borderline criminal that Republicans in Jeff City continue to openly defy and thumb their noses at the majority of voters and what we voted for. We will see them in Court and they will lose!

THE PEOPLE VOTED FOR IT. SCREW JEFFERSON CITY!

Oooh, are you Angry? Maybe only taxpayers and land owners should be allowed to vote.

Just like the proposed gas tax increase that has been voted down that they are trying to increase and the right to work it is wrong. But if you leave it up to the voters on some issues they can't make an educated decision because they don't speed the time to research what they are voting on.

The citizens voted to expand Medicaid. This is a democracy and the will of the voters should not be overruled.

Mental Health isn't real thing.

Rusty, I want to help you, truly I do. But only you can deal with your parental trauma. Trauma is not mental health.

Rusty Shackleford

Just because you fail to comprehend something does not mean it does not exist. Maybe educate yourself some?

Toasty

Yes, its my local church. Men and women are readily available to listen and support.

Max DeYoung

Most of the people that need help don't go to church.

Especially, if you attack a police officer.
