No Medicaid in your state? Thank the conservative group ALEC.

Another day, another document drop over at The Guardian. This time, we get to see their brag sheets about the progress they've made thwarting progress.

Reports from eight of ALEC's "task forces" shed light on just how much influence they really have over state legislators, and how much of the blame they bear for impeding implementation of the ACA.

In their Health and Human Services Task Force document, they boast that based upon their resolution to oppose state exchanges and Medicaid expansion, "just 17 states plan to operate an exchange for plan year 2014, placing the federal government in a position it had not anticipated.

Thanks, ALEC!

They're also proud of their Resolution against Medicaid Expansion, bragging that "just 23 states have plans to move forward with expansion at this time."
