Senate Roll Call 171: The amendment was not adopted

To accept $1.530 billion in federal money to expand Medicaid eligibility under the terms of the federal health care law ("Obamacare"). The amendment would shift $181 million in current state health care spending onto the federal budget, making those funds available for other purposes in the short-term, but the terms of the expansion would require more money from State of Michigan taxpayers in a few years.
