It's not a lie. Now governors can make the paperwork people need to fill out to maintain their medicaid as confusing as possible. Work requirements have failed miserably in any state that's tried to implement it. Employment remained stagnant and the administrative costs of trying to enforce the policy costs the taxpayers money. They wanted to cut medicaid despite most campaigning that they wouldn't and that's there spin. In reality though, many will lose coverage and it's not hyperbole when I say it will cost both medical bankruptcy and lives in some circumstances.
