Former South Dakota Democratic Party Executive Director Pam Cole has joined “Dakotans for Health” a group pushing a Medicaid expansion ballot issue.

Cole says she is starting to organize the effort….

Cole wants to have a network of people working the petition drive…

Cole says there are too many people in the state that can’t afford medical insurance….

The group hopes to collect over sixty-five thousand signatures to get a Medicaid expansion constitutional amendment on the ballot next year.
