President Signs Iraq War Supplemental Bill

"Today, President Bush signed the Iraq war supplemental appropriations bill into law. This legislation includes a one-year delay in the implementation of six of seven recent Medicaid regulations – including both case management and the rehabilitative service option. Thank you to all National Council members who contacted your Senators and Representatives to urge them to vote to preserve Medicaid. Your calls and e-mails have made a difference!"  Chuck Ingoglia, MSW
Vice President, Public Policy
