Dear Governor Haslam

Larry Drain, Legislative Liaison on State Legislative Affairs, is writing a letter each day to Governor Haslam urging him to accept Medicaid Expansion for Tennessee. Thousands of our fellow consumers are needlessly suffering as a direct result of the Governor's rejection of Medicaid Expansion as offered in the ACA. These consumer's mental health will continue to deteriorate until mental health care is provided and the mental health care system in Tennessee is improved and expanded. This blog is established to give a platform for the presentation of Larry's letters.

Right now it looks very much like Tennessee will not expand Medicaid.  Politically it doesnt look possible.  And that has left many people feeling hopeless and immobile.

This blog is meant to act as my virtual sit-in in Governor Haslam's office.  As the voice of one person it has little chance of having any effect at all.  But as the voice of many maybe.  I invite you to join the sit-in and ask that you invite one more person who invites one more person and so on.  I will be writing Governor Haslam a letter each day asking him to expand medicaid.  I will email the letter and copy my legislators.  That is all you have to do.  And ask one more person to do the same.  All my letters will be published on this blog.  If you would like to join the sit-in I would love to publish your letters also.  Spread the word.  I dont know how well this will work.  I know how well doing nothing will work.  Please help.  It might be the best help you give.
