Today's guest hosts are Brent J. Cohen, Executive Director of Generation Progress, and Edwith Theogene, Organizing Director for Generation Progress.

They discuss all things Medicaid, the government program that provides health coverage to low-income people in the U.S.
Medicaid is one of the largest payers for health care in this country—as of July 2019, over 65 million people in the U.S. were enrolled in the program.

To break down exactly what Medicaid is, who the program helps, and the threats the program is facing, they’re joined today by Fabiola Carrión, the Senior Attorney at the National Health Law Program, and Jamille Fields Allsbrook, Director of the Women’s Initiative at the Center for American Progress.
The website for "Generation Progress" is www.GenProgress.org and their Twitter Handle is @GenProgress.  Brent J. Cohen's Twitter handle is @BrentJCohen and Edwith Theogene's handle is @WhoIsEdwith.
