Penobscot Bay Pilot: Question 2: Do you want Maine to expand Medicaid (MaineCare)?

Proponents, including the Maine Center for Economic Policy, maintain that the expansion will expand health coverage to 70,000 low-income Mainers and create 6,000 jobs. The Maine Center for Economic Policy, according to its self-description, is a nonpartisan, policy research organization committed to helping Maine people prosper in a strong, fair and sustainable economy.

For thousands of sick low-income Mainers, Medicaid Expansion is their only hope for affordable care

With the Medicaid expansion ballot question, this November, Mainers have a chance to fix that. By voting to raise the Medicaid eligibility threshold in Maine, our friends, neighbors, and coworkers will be able to get health care, setting them on the path to improved health, improved productivity, and ultimately a better life.
