An excerpt:
The decisions made by state governments related to Medicaid funding of American Indian and Alaska Native health care is not consistent with either the federal responsibility or the unique government-to-government relationship the Tribes have with the federal government.

American Indians and Alaska Natives are disproportionally impacted in states not expanding Medicaid.
