Show Notes
Balancing Colorado’s yearly budget is getting harder to do, as the state has entered a cycle of billion dollar budget shortfalls, largely because of Medicaid costs growing out of control. Then, some Coloradans losing health insurance coverage may decide to skip vaccines and screening tests, but there is a new alternative on one corner of the state. Plus, Denver’s national women’s soccer team threatens to leave Denver before it ever starts, and move to the suburbs. And, a brief update on President Trump’s effort to free Tina Peters.
