Stacey Abrams vows 'concerted effort' to push Nathan Deal on Medicaid

By Daniel Malloy


WASHINGTON -- In a conference call organized by the White House to sing the Affordable Care Act's praises in Georgia, state House Minority Leader Stacey Abrams said there will be a wide-ranging effort this year to cajole Gov. Nathan Deal into expanding Medicaid.

This will come in part by making sure everyone knows that it's solely Deal's decision. Said Abrams:

"The most important thing we can do is raise awareness and make sure our constituents understand who has the decision-making power. ... I do think there will be a concerted effort not just among the political class but citizen and community groups."

3. We need to hit that message hard.

Name the names...Deal and Hudgens are personally causing needless suffering and even death by denying medicaid coverage. A**holes need to be called out!
