Beshear vows to rescind Kentucky's Medicaid work requirements after claiming victory in governor's race | TheHill
Attorney General Andy Beshear (D), who claimed victory in the Kentucky governor's race, vowed Tuesday night to rescind the state's Medicaid work requirements in his first week in office. Beshear projected himself as the winner of the gubernatorial race on Tuesday as he led Gov. Matt Bevin (R) by a 49.2 to 48.8 percent margin, but The Associated Press had not called the race as of 11:15 p.m.
"In my first week in office I am going to rescind this governor's Medicaid waiver," Beshear said in his speech claiming victory on Tuesday night.
The Trump administration approved Bevin's request last year to require some Medicaid beneficiaries work as a condition for receiving benefits.
==================================================
Anything to give Trump a bad morning.
