Medicaid Expansion on Legislative Agenda

With the state legislative session getting underway, AARP is advocating for Medicaid expansion, allowing an estimated 125,000 Mississippians to gain health coverage. The expansion would be largely funded by the federal government; Mississippi is one of 10 states that has not already done so, under provisions of the Affordable Care Act. 

AARP will also push for a state-facilitated workplace retirement savings program for private-sector workers. For more details, visit aarp.org/ms.
