LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Question for legislators I have questions for our state Republican legislators: Have you ever been in a position in which a desired benefit to you was dependent upon someone else’s decision? Conversely, have you ever been in a position to grant a benefit of significant value to someone else, but intentionally chose to withhold it? While these may sound theoretical, this is the situation facing about 150,000 low income Kansans who would benefit from an expansion of the Medicaid health insurance program. This could remove the dread of the devastation of a medical emergency, accident or illness for which there was no payment available.
