Scott Walker’s budget cuts the rural health programs he touted at Iowa Ag Summit
Speaking to a roomful of Iowa farmers and agricultural executives at the Iowa Ag Summit earlier this month, Gov. Scott Walker touted investments he's made in rural health care. Everything he said was true, but it reflected investments made in his 2013-15 budget. Rural health care providers now say cuts in the governor's newest biennial budget — released about a month before his Ag Summit appearance — is a "shock to the system." (CAPITAL TIMES, 3/18)
