Cuellar: Becerra will help us expand Medicaid in South Texas

LAREDO, Texas – President Biden’s nominee for secretary of health and human services will find a way of expanding Medicaid for South Texas, says U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar.

Former congressman and California attorney general Xavier Becerra is Biden’s nominee to run the health and human services department.

On a webinar Friday, Cuellar said Becerra is a good friend. He said he plans to bring Becerra to the South Texas border region, once his nomination has been confirmed by Congress.

“I certainly want to bring him down, do a little tour, San Antonio, Laredo and the Valley. I will tell you something about Xavier, he is a very smart individual. If there is a way to expand that (Medicaid) he is going to find it,” Cuellar said.

these self-righteous Republicans we have in State Government. It can't come soon enough. We need a Stacy Abrams type effort in this State to clean house of the disgusting representation that now exists.
