You being kept in Medicaid because you inclined to keep your job, even in the lowest of the sectors.

"Politics isn't about policy. And Medicaid work requirements aren't about promoting self-sufficiency. They're a lever for states to affect enrollment rates through administrative barriers in order to free up budget resources, and thus an obvious abuse of the waiver process.

The new waiver for Medicaid work requirements are specifically designed to target the low income, able bodied cohort that became eligible through the ACA (rather than pregnant women or children). Tragically, this is also the population most affected by the opioid crisis.

Before the ACA expansions Medicaid was a limited conduit for substance abuse treatment. Today, it is perhaps *the key* vehicle for addressing the opioid crisis. Are we really going to make access to rehabilitation services contingent on stable work?"
