Singer [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0003-4067-0829 © Phillip M. Singer 2018 Dedication For Jennifer, Felix, and Edith for being my “still point of the turning world.” ii Acknowledgements I came to the University of Michigan in the Fall of 2011 after being accepted into the Masters in Health Services Administration program. Seven years later I not only have received my Masters but a PhD from the greatest University in the world. These past seven years have been humbling, enriching, and rewarding. I am incredibly grateful for all of the support that I have received from the faculty in Health Management and Policy. In particular, during my Masters training, I want to thank Dr.’s David Mendez, Richard Hirth, and Christy Lemak. Each of you supported and encouraged me to continue my education in the doctoral program. Without your guidance, support, and kindness I would not have even started on this journey. Any success that I have had during my time in the doctoral program has been a result of the people that I have collaborated with and learned from. Most prominently are my dissertation co-chairs Dr.’s Scott Greer and Holly Jarman. -

State Legislators to Be Honored by the League of Arizona Cities and Towns During Annual Conference
Media Contact: Ken Strobeck, Executive Director League of Arizona Cities and Towns 602‐258‐5786 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 19, 2015 STATE LEGISLATORS TO BE HONORED BY THE LEAGUE OF ARIZONA CITIES AND TOWNS DURING ANNUAL CONFERENCE TUCSON — The League of Arizona Cities and Towns will honor 47 members of the Arizona Legislature for their work during the 2015 legislative session at the organization’s annual conference on Thursday, August 20 in Tucson. The legislators are being recognized for their commitment to local government decision making and providing support to cities and towns in their districts and statewide. “We are pleased to honor these legislators for their service to Arizona,” said Tempe Mayor and League President Mark Mitchell. “They are devoted supporters of cities and towns, understanding that municipalities are most effective when they are able to make the decisions that will directly impact those people who live, work and play within their communities.” The League’s legislative agenda includes two basic core principles: commitment to local decision‐making by the elected leaders of cities and towns, and a commitment to the revenue sharing system established by the voters through a series of initiative measures. The League’s highest honor goes to “Legislative Champions.” This year, they are: Representative Mark Cardenas (D‐19) Representative Doug Coleman (R‐16) Senator Lupe Contreras (D‐19) Representative Karen Fann (R‐1) Representative Jay Lawrence (R‐23) Representative Eric Meyer (D‐28) -

The Politics of Expanding Medicaid in Republican-Led States: Lessons from Arizona, Indiana, and Tennessee
THE POLITICS OF EXPANDING MEDICAID IN REPUBLICAN-LED STATES: LESSONS FROM ARIZONA, INDIANA, AND TENNESSEE David Adler A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Public Health in the Department of Health Policy and Management in the Gillings School of Global Public Health. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Jonathan Oberlander Aaron McKethan Pam Silberman Rebecca Slifkin Michael Sparer © 2018 David Adler ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT David Adler: The Politics of Expanding Medicaid in Republican-led States: Lessons from Arizona, Indiana, and Tennessee (Under the direction of Jonathan Oberlander) This study examined the question of why some states led by Republicans expanded Medicaid to 138% of the federal poverty level as allowed by the Affordable Care Act, while nationally most Republican governors and legislatures resisted expansion. Through in-depth case studies, I explored how policymakers and stakeholders addressed Medicaid expansion in Arizona, Indiana, and Tennessee. While all three states studied are unique, I identified six themes that influenced the Medicaid expansion decision in each of the states: prior Medicaid history in the state, the relationship between the governor and legislature, the language used to discuss Medicaid expansion, stakeholder coalitions, the political environment, and federal-state negotiations. The state’s previous history of Medicaid policy emerged as the most influential factor shaping state decisions, with states that had previous popular expansions being more ready to expand. Negative experiences, such as restricting coverage expansions under TennCare, left a lasting legacy that proved impossible to overcome. -
2019 Legislative Wrap up and Scorecard
LEGISLATIVE SCORES AND 2019 WRAP-UP How Legislators Were Scored Secular AZ monitored dozens of legislative issues and bills of interest this session. Only 10 bills— mostly those we opposed— made it to a committee hearing. Of those ten, three went to a full floor vote. Our legislative scorecard typically assigns lawmakers a percentage-based secular score based on their votes with or against us on the floor. Given the low number of secular interest bills that made it to a full floor vote this year, a different system was devised for 2019 to give constituents the most accurate idea possible as to how lawmakers represented their interests. This system gives or subtracts points for pro- or anti- secular actions taken this session. These actions include: Floor votes (1 point each +/-) Committee votes (1 point each +/-) Assignment of bills to committee (House Speaker and Senate President) (1 point +/-) Scheduling bills for hearing (committee chairs) (1 point +/-) Bill sponsorship (2 points for prime sponsorship; 1 point for co-sponsorship +/-) Secular invocations delivered (1 point) Attendance at our Secular Studies program (1 point) Other special actions as indicated Points are added for each pro-secular action (I.e. voting with us on a bill), and subtracted for each anti-secular action. (I.e., a vote against us or the introduction of an anti-secular bill.) Please note that this method will not necessarily produce a statistically even playing field for every lawmaker. (Committee members, for example, will have been given many more opportunities to earn or lose points than the rest of the legislature.) However, we still feel the results will give our constituency a useful tool for determining who our staunchest allies and opponents are in the current Legislature.
