While it seems the U.S. Congress is gummed up with political divisions, controversy and bitter rivalries these days, Colorado legislators managed to advance a few bills supported by CCLP that promise to improve the health and well-being of low-income Coloradans – with bipartisan support, no less!
On Monday, the Senate Health and Human Services Committee unanimously approved House Bill 1126, part of a three-bill package developed by CCLP and the Colorado Cross-Disabilities Coalition intended to ensure that Medicaid clients do not lose access to health care in violation of state or federal law.
