Missouri voters will get the chance to decide whether to expand Medicaid to low-income residents. A ballot measure calls for enshrining Medicaid expansion in the deep red state's constitution, which would make it harder for legislators to throw up hurdles to enrollment, such as work requirements. The Trump administration and many Republican state officials have sought to add work requirements, premiums and other mandates to Medicaid, which make it more difficult for folks to qualify for coverage.
