Bravo for Nebraska, the state with a heart. These requirements treat with respect and dignity those on Medicaid. Tragically there are still those who act like compassionate slave masters, wanting to "care" for those they beieve are inferior.

I believe that you made a mistake in your article that could raise some eyebrows.

Nebraska became the first state to implement new Medicaid work requirements that were passed as part of the “One Big Beautiful Bill” last year. The requirements, which provide that able-bodied adults between 19 and 64 work or complete community service 80 👀hours a week to stay on Medicaid, went into effect on Friday.

"80 👀hours a week to stay"? No. It is 80 hours per month.
