The Spin

Democratic narrative

Republican governors are rushing to force people off their Medicaid rolls – sometimes for clerical reasons – to burnish their right-wing reputations for the national stage.

In many cases, Republicans and Democrats are removing people from the roles to adhere to state law since the rule ended. Instead of playing politics, the current administration should act if it thinks something wrong is taking place.
