Can it really be as simple as waking up one gloomy morning and saying to ourselves “Gee we have all this new traffic on our roads!” and with the purest intentions and greatest of expectations reach into the State’s transportation pockets to build more capacity (insert your favorite surprised and confused sound effect here), and the only thing the legislature and past Governors can produce after 12 years of appropriations and projected needs are the inside-out pocket liners that look like white long bunny ears?

The Medicaid Interim Committee, created during the 2006 General Session for the express purpose of studying the entire Medicaid landscape, will hold its first meeting June 14, 2006 at 8:00 am in the room W135 of the West House Building, State Capitol Complex.
Rep. Jeff Alexander, R-Provo, provided this post. The same post is also available on his personal blog.
The Governor’s message in the Tribune regarding Medicaid dental benefits is confusing. It seems that he, and obviously the Media, do not understand how the budgeting process works. The Legislature doesn’t need to approve the Medicaid Dental funding. The Health Department can make that decision themselves.
