2. Sad that a critic like Hudson was dropped

but it sounds like in general he favored managed health care. Health care should not be a for profit enterprise. Therefore the management of Medicaid should revert to the state.

One thing that always bothers me is that Repubs (and Hudson is a Repub) only understand problems when it DIRECTLY affects them. In Hudson's case we have this paragraph:

Hudson said he initially supported Branstad's 2015 decision to hire private companies to manage care for the 600,000 Iowans on Medicaid. But he said he felt a duty to speak up when he saw those companies cut crucial services to his son and other Iowans with disabilities.
