There's a half dozen other state governor's that also used their executive order authority.  Alaska is the 30th state that has implemented Medicaid expansion.  It's no surprise that the states continuing to block Medicaid expansion are all so-called red states.  But time is continuing to persuad the holdouts to change their minds.  Kudos to the states that have chosen to practice common sense.  Medicaid and Medicare may not last forever, but the nation's citizenry will benefit while both contribute to the health of the nation.
