Opinion

Last week, the Virginia legislature, with my support, took several major steps forward. First, we agreed to expand Medicaid, health insurance for disabled and low-income Americans, so that now, over 36,000 people in the 36th Senate District receive their health care from Medicaid. 

This includes over 24,000 children, children whose parents now have no health care.  Starting Jan. 1, 2019, that will change.
