Related: About this forumCorbett Says NO to 700,000 Pennsylvanians. WE SAY YES! Act now to bring coverage and jobs to PA!
Governor Corbett announced he's "not recommending" Pennsylvania accept federal funds to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act.
As part of the new health care law, Pennsylvania can accept billions in federal funding to offer health coverage to 700,000 working adults.
Accepting the money is the commonsense thing to do. We can cover more people AND save taxpayers millions of dollars that get spent on emergency room care for the uninsured.
Help make sure the legislature doesn't make the same tragic mistake Corbett did. Join us in Harrisburg, February 12th!
Faith leaders, community activists, civil rights leaders, health care advocates and more will join together for a special briefing, group visits with lawmakers, and a major campaign kick-off event.
