Yes to bridge, no to health care

I’m glad that Gov. Scott Walker requested and accepted federal funds to help repair the Leo Frigo bridge in Green Bay.

However, I also wonder why he accepted federal funds for the bridge yet refused to accept federal funds to expand Medicaid which would have provided health insurance to over 90,000 Wisconsin men, women and children.

Is the bridge more important than the health of 90,000 citizens?
