Touring Idaho To Advocate For Medicaid Expansion

Boise State Public Radio

Earlier this year, more than 60,000 Idahoans signed a petition to put Medicaid expansion on the November ballot. Now the group Reclaim Idaho wants to convince a majority of voters to support the expansion.

The organization has repurposed a 30-year-old bus to spread the message. Idaho Matters speaks with the organization's co-founder about the role an expanded Medicaid program will play in the Gem State.
