I don’t believe that we can force vulnerable kids into private coverage. That’s what we’d be doing. They’d lose that special kind of defined benefit that comes under Medicaid…You cannot do that. They have requirements that you have to meet and can only be met through Medicaid, not in the exchange, where they’re at the mercy of people that will have them for lunch…

— Sen. Jay Rockefeller

Personally, I think Sen. Rockefeller’s health is also too important to be left to the private marketplace. Let’s enroll him in Medicaid.
