Democratic lawmakers again sharply criticized Republican Gov. Tate Reeves for standing in the way of Medicaid expansion.
by Taylor Vance and Devna Bose, Mississippi Today October 25, 2023 Less than two weeks before the Nov. 7 statewide election, top Democratic leaders are continuing to pound the drum on Mississippi’s hospital crisis and the need for state officials to expand Medicaid coverage to the working poor. Speaking on the front steps of the state Capitol on Wednesday morning, three Democratic lawmakers sharply criticized Republican Gov.

Across the state, voters keep reelecting the same Republicans to office who oppose Medicaid expansion.
