Mike Braun: “There is no way we ever catch up.”

Medicaid dollars intended for vulnerable children and families are not a slush fund.

We’re not going to dismiss it. We’re not going to try to slow it down.

“The state is also seeking additional FEMA support that could include home repairs or direct housing assistance for families whose needs cannot be met through available rentals,” according to Braun’s office.

We’re doing this out of the $2 billion of extra reserves we created in one year.
