Their attorney, Chuck Hatfield, says Missouri lawmakers approved Medicaid expansion when they approved the state’s $11 billion Medicaid budget. Hatfield says the voters have spoken, by approving Amendment Two in August.
“It’s very unusual to have a lawsuit after the election, about how the initiative was adopted. And I’m not sure they (Missouri Supreme Court) have any good law on exactly what you’re supposed to do,” Hatfield told Capitol reporters at the Supreme Court, after Tuesday’s arguments.
