Too many young families need Medicaid, and the Oklahoma governor appears to not understand. Let's stop blocking federal funds to expand Medicaid and help Oklahoma families with children.

I have too many clients struggling to make ends meet, and now our government is blocking much-needed Medicaid expansion.

The government wants to use the grandparents' income in some cases when determining Medicaid qualification, and this holds up the process for children to get braces and the other medical assistance they need.
