Policy Analysis #2 (250 points) PH 528 Final Exam Graduate Students Only Introduction: State Representative Joey Hood (Mississippi District 35) is the chairman of the Mississippi State House of Representatives Medicaid Committee. In 2022, the House let a measure die without a vote that would have allowed pregnant women who already qualify for Medicaid to get healthcare for an additional 10 months after childbirth. This bill is again up for debate in 2025. There is little debate to be had about the merits of expanding Medicaid in Mississippi.

Representative Hood has asked you to write a policy analysis on this issue. Sections: Must be 5 pages minimum- section page amounts are suggestions
