And these are just a few of our initial questions that we think legislative leaders should ask as they work to finalize a 2025-26 state budget.

There are a lot of questions to ask about the Governor's proposal? For instance...
Why does it say there is a $12 billion shortfall when $4.5 billion of that is put aside in a discretionary reserve fund (meaning the real shortfall is $7.5 billion)?

& as my colleague @adri-ramyam.bsky.social notes:
- Work requirements are cuts that lead to coverage loss.
- Most working age adults enrolled in Medicaid already work, while others front barriers due to disability or caregiving.
