The Obama administration on Monday said it expects that U.S. states will eventually join its planned expansion of the Medicaid healthcare program as they evaluate the benefits of providing health coverage to more low-income people.

U.S. Medicaid director Cindy Mann said states will likely spend the next several months analyzing the plan, which under President Barack Obama's healthcare law, would extend health coverage to about 16 million uninsured people based on new criteria that broadens eligibility to people with incomes of up to 133 percent of the federal poverty line.

Are these assclowns still under the illusion it isn’t going to be repealed??

Americans hate it. They don’t want it.

We must elect Mitt Romney, have him slow it down, then have the House and Senate defund/repeal/kill the damnable ObamaDeathCare Laws and Regulations.

The House could defund it today if they really wanted to.

No, they couldn’t. We don’t have the Senate and we don’t have an #Occupier in the White House who will approve it.

C’mon toby...you know 2010 was just the beginning....it will be a long hard slog to fight back the fascists. We can’t do it with just one house of Congress. And sadly we cannot rely on SCOTUS.

During the next session when they're debating the Continuing Resolution then don't fund any part of it like new IRS agents.

I guess...would that pass the Senate? I agree, by the way. Good point.
