I don’t think most people understand the scope of what Medicaid does. Medical care? Sure. But it also provides a range of services for survivors of domestic violence and gun violence.

Here’s a story to illustrate that. I just wish I shared it sooner.

Brooke Rollins on farm laborers: "There will be no amnesty. The mass deportations continue, but in a strategic way. And we move the workforce toward automation and 100% American participation, which with 34 million able-bodied on Medicaid we should be able to do fairly quickly."
