Florida needs to pass Medicaid expansion this year

Florida Gov. Rick Scott just announced that he no longer supports using federal funds under Obamacare (the Affordable Healthcare Act) to provide health insurance to 800,000 uninsured Floridians. But in 2013, Scott said, "Expanding access to Medicaid services for three years is a compassionate, common sense step forward."

There's still time for the Florida Legislature to pass Medicaid expansion this year, providing a lifeline to hundreds of thousands of Floridians. Will you help hold Gov. Scott accountable for his flip flop and demand that he get the job done NOW? Please sign this petition to let Gov. Scott and the Florida House of Representatives to pass Medicaid expansion now.

Why is this important?

Affordable healthcare should be available to all United States citizens and the people of Florida should not be left out.
