Louisiana Senator John Kennedy, a Republican, has advocated for the addition of a work requirement to Medicaid, which would force able-bodied adults to work or volunteer in order to receive coverage.
"These programs were not meant to be parking lots, they were meant to be bridges," said the Senator on Fox News. "And for some people, not everybody on Medicaid, but for some people, the best way to get back on your feet is to get off your ass."
