Tillis Introduces Bill To Assist Military Children With Disabilities
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Senator Thom Tillis has introduced the Care for Military Kids Act, legislation that ensures servicemembers can maintain critical health care coverage and medical services for their children, regardless of where their service takes them.
“Military families make immense sacrifices for our nation, and ensuring their children have consistent access to critical health care should never be a burden placed on them,” said Senator Tillis. “This bipartisan legislation will allow these families to maintain access to care, giving our servicemembers the peace of mind they deserve.”
The Care for Military Kids Act ensures servicemembers can maintain critical healthcare coverage and medical services for their children no matter where their service takes them. After moving to another state, current Medicaid regulations force military families to reapply for their children’s long-term care benefits through Medicaid since Tricare does not provide that benefit.
The bill allows military families to remain on their home state’s Medicaid throughout their military career. The Care for Military Kids Act is endorsed by the National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS), the National Military Families Organization, and Blue Star Families.

We don’t want Tillis, some believe that he can’t win, this was said at the District convention recently in Sanford, N.C. Tillis is being PRIMARIED by a man in Wake County. I am planning to run, myself, Vote for me! This is an OLD picture of TILLIS, need an updated photo, if possible. Thank you,
You don’t stand a chance if you are they type of person who comes on regional news sites to complain about old pictures. Don’t waste your money.
LOL
I checked your stats. It is I who is laughing out loud. Go ahead and waste your and others money.
“I taught music in the public schools for over 20 years in North Carolina. Kanye West is going to do great things for the black community in Chicago, but also around the country, Meeting students where they are, and then bringing them up and out to greatness, and self esteem unimaginable. Thank you. I heard his song Graduation played at a high school graduation last year and the graduates walked around to it. God bless Kanye today and every day! Sincerely, Elizabeth”
You support an antisemitic nazi.
NOT
I support Kanye for what he has done for the BLACK community. I want to build our GOP base. I love people of ALL faiths, myself.
More useless pandering by NC’s backbone-less senator. What about guaranteed healthcare for the children of first responders? Or teachers? Or medical professionals? When *EVERY* group is a special case, then NO ONE is a special case. #stopPandering #voteOutIncumbents #MAGA
It says…. “Children With Disabilities”!!! Tillis wants to provide help for DISABLED CHILDREN!!! Not provide “complete” healthcare for military children! And anyhow that sure as heck does not sound anything like they are “Fraudsters or Cheaters Milking the System! Please folks can’t we at least provide MILITARY FAMILIES WITH A LITTLE PIECE OF MIND??? Have a BRAIN’ – then use it!! NOTE, I did NOT ask you all to have a heart, we are waayyy past that!! And who cares if Tillis panders, I mean that’s his job!!! He is sent to Washington to pass, implement LAWS And RULES that help make North Carolinian lives LIVABLE!!! He’s F’ing SUPPOSED TO PANDER(ie: ADVOCATE!!!)
And before all the JoCo Grammar Police come at me, I was on a roll, yea that’s a run-on mess, GET Over It!!
@sotired: His job is NOT to pandering to minorities (disabled children of veterans make up less than .002% of the NC population) — his job is to work for THE MAJORITY of citizens. If you and the other Snowflakes want to live in a society that gives benefits based on need instead of equality, go live in SOCIALST Europe. Here in the USA (and NC) the power is with the majority. #StopTheTyrannyOfTheMinorities #MAGA
Put me in, COACH!
Salt Gobbler, go away, due to you could be the THIRD man I have had to file a TRO on. Plus, I am not interested.
Don’t tell me what to do. Maybe focus on becoming a US Senator instead of barking at an internet troll.
Useless RINO Thom.
How about passing legislation to support the Trump agenda we voted for.
Instead we have do-nothing Thom… useless!
