I hope so. I need it.
I'm 31. I haven't had insurance for years, then had it with my job. Then I got laid off, and lost it, just as I was getting my health on track. I'm a diabetic type 1, so I wish I had some coverage.
Plus, I receive unemployment, so I still have too much "income" to receive medicaid.
