Had the pleasure ysd to meet Father Gary Wegner, who runs a Detroit soup kitchen

Wegner says demand is up ~80% over last yr w/ hunger rising nationally

“Jesus said blessed are the poor,” Wegner said. “Only in America do we put the modifier, ‘Blessed are the *deserving* poor’”

1/🧵Quick update on the #ialegis @IAGovernor 12 months postpartum Medicaid coverage bills.

SF 2251 (frm SSB 3140) cleared 1st funnel, passed sub (3-0) & full-committee (9-5 along party lines). HSB 643 passed out of sub (2-1) & anticipate it will pass full committee next week.
