US: Health care for foster and adopted children is a real concern (Opinion)

US: Health care for foster and adopted children is a real concern (Opinion)
St. Louis Post Dispatch – July 06, 2017
As I read about the various attempts to replace Obamacare in Congress, I’m left wondering if our elected officials in Washington have forgotten about children like me, children like my brothers and sisters, who are left at the mercy of adult strangers. For politicians, it seems like Medicaid is a toy, the ultimate proverbial political football. For us, Medicaid was a lifeline.
