Sarah Huckabee Sanders: “A country has to be able to feed itself, fuel itself, and fight for itself to truly be free.”

Today, I am submitting a waiver on behalf of the State of Arkansas to allow us to implement a work requirement for all able-bodied, working-age recipients of Arkansas' Medicaid expansion program, ARHOME.

Giving more access to drugs – particularly recreational access – does nothing to help or benefit Arkansans.

I look forward to continuing our close collaboration with the legislature to slow the growth of government, expand our economy, and responsibly phase out our state income tax.

On one floor of DHS, our state has been approving food stamp purchases for soft drinks and candy, while on another floor, our state’s Medicaid program is paying to treat the chronic diseases those products can help create.
