Governor Tony Evers says the state would save money by expanding BadgerCare.
The governor today called for a special session of the state legislature on May 25th to address healthcare issues, including taking advantage of the Affordable Care Act’s offer to access federal funds while expanding affordable coverage. Evers says the expansion would make health care available to an additional 90-thousand Wisconsin residents.
A 2019 Marquette University Law School poll revealed that 70-percent of Wisconsin voters support BadgerCare expansion.
