Brian Duff, Ph.D., associate professor in the Department of Political Science, was quoted in the January 6, 2014 issue of the Daily Journal regarding the current political debate in Maine on whether or not to expand Medicaid coverage under the federal health overhaul.

The article, “Maine lawmakers' return: Democrats push Medicaid expansion, LePage eyes welfare reform,” states Duff's belief that “the impact of the state’s decision not to expand will become more apparent this session as an estimated 24,390 Mainers fall into the gap between being eligible for Medicaid under the current guidelines and qualifying for tax credits available to buy coverage on the government-run insurance marketplace.”
