VT Edition: Doug Racine & Steve Maier on health care

Thursday May 8, 2008
Jane Lindholm

Those plans fell short as the Legislature finished its business this spring. VPR's Jane Lindholm speaks with Senator Doug Racine and Rep. Steve Maier about whether the state has done all it can in this budget environment to provide health insurance to Vermonters.
