States that refuse Medicaid are leaving over 250,000 poor veterans uninsured - Vox

States that refuse Medicaid are leaving over 250,000 poor veterans uninsured - Vox: "258,600 VETERANS ARE LIVING BELOW THE POVERTY LINE IN STATES REFUSING TO EXPAND MEDICAID."
 According to a report by Pew using analysis from the Urban Institute, approximately 258,600 of those veterans are living below the poverty line in states refusing to expand Medicaid. Without veteran's benefits — and with incomes too low to qualify for subsidies to use on the state exchanges — these veterans are left without affordable coverage options.
