The SCC Political Science department hosts a discussion on Medicaid expansion featuring two Missouri legislators. In 2020, Missourians passed Amendment 2, which changed the Missouri Constitution and required the state government to expand Medicaid to cover Missourians earning up to 133% of the poverty level. In 2021, the Missouri legislature refused to fund that expansion, but the Missouri Supreme Court ruled that the expansion could proceed. State Representative John Weiman (R) and State Senator Jill Schupp (D) will discuss their perspectives on Medicaid expansion and what happens next. Gabe Harper (SCC Political Science) will moderate the discussion.
