Ha! What a hypocritical state Texas is. “For the children!” *proceeds to not give a fuck about children*
I’d love to see this map from 2005
Well, that’s TexASS for y’all!
look at all those red states
There is 0 reason for any child to not have health insurance in the US.
Alabama actually a hot surprise here
Texas is 12% from the source, data is 2023 at least for Texas
Looked it up because I was curious and the chart didn’t say
I thought children automatically qualified for Medicaid?
I’m amazed Mississippi isn’t sitting right there with Texas as a top contender here.
Why wouldn’t the worst two offenders be Texas and florida?
This is funny, a map where California and Texas are (almost) outliers on *opposite* ends of the scale. Usually when Texas is an outlier and California isn’t, all the other southern states join Texas.
Is this just a map of illegal immigration?
Boy I sure am getting tired of all this Greatness. /s
What an embarrassing, embarrassing reality for the US
I am a Canadian who works for a US company (but I work remotely from Canada). I know very well that certain states (like Texas and Florida) chose not to expand Medicaid. But my understanding is that unless a child is undocumented, there is no reason why they would be uninsured (Children’s Health Insurance Plan, basically Medicaid for children, have much higher income limits than even expanded Medicaid for adults. Even if a child has undocumented parents, if they are born in the US, they are citizens and eligible for Medicaid based on their parents’ income). Is it true that almost 10% of children currently living in Texas are undocumented (born outside the US and brought into the country as undocumented children)?
New England and the west coast looking good as usual
