Mississippi lawmakers expected to vote on Medicaid expansion plan with work requirement
SUMMARY: Mississippi is poised to vote on expanding Medicaid to more people, albeit with a work requirement which may not receive federal assent. The state’s legislative bodies have come up with a compromise plan requiring 100 hours of employment monthly for those not offered health insurance, or meeting other conditions like being a student or parent to a young child. If refused by the federal government, Mississippi will repeatedly seek approval annually. Georgia, facing a similar federal pushback, is litigating to maintain its work mandate. Expanding Medicaid could assist many Mississippians with managing chronic health problems, potentially benefiting financially fragile hospitals and about 200,000 residents.

SUMMARY: After a severe 111-39 loss to Missouri, Mississippi Valley State’s men’s basketball team used humor on social media to cope with the situation. Responding to ESPN’s stats highlighting how Missouri outscored them in key areas, the Delta Devils’ account quipped, “Uncalled for.” Additionally, they expressed frustration over a controversial blocking foul during the game, arguing it should have been a charge. Their playful remarks provided a lighthearted take on an otherwise disheartening evening. The team is set to face Texas next in their ongoing road game stretch against SEC opponents.
