Manage episode 491697431 series 2545351
The GOP bill in Congress could make sweeping changes to Medicaid, the joint federal-state health insurance program for 70 million low-income people and people with disabilities. North Carolina recently expanded coverage for an additional 660,000 people. There, it's been a "lifeline" for some rural areas and injected federal dollars into the state’s economy. We’ll hear what’s at stake with federal cuts. But first: the disconnect between "an economy that's slowing down and a stock market that's heating up."
