No longer fighting about If, but instead When

On Friday May 20th 2005 the Department of Social Services filed an emergency rule making request to the Secretary of State Robin Carnahan to allow Medicaid cuts to over 68,000 parents to be implemented July 1, 2005. Citizens for Missouri's Children believe this request should be denied and standard rule making procedure should be followed. This standard rule making would potentially allow these Medicaid recipients another 6-9 months of health insurance coverage.

They are asking people to call Secretary of State Robin Carnahan at 573/751-2379 and ask that she reject the emergency rule and direct the Department of Social Services to follow the standard rule making procedure for any Medicaid cuts that the state intends to make.
