George,

There is good reason for the Republicans to be skeptical about promised money for Medicaid.

That is exactly what the General Assembly did to state employees and educators when they took over the employee's share of payments into VRS [the Virginia Retirement System]. In over 20 years since that law passed, there have been two payments of the government share.

Nevertheless, using expansion of Medicaid for political purposes to defeat the Governor is unconscionable and they should be ashamed of themselves. Stop playing politics and legislate for the good of Virginia citizens.
