America’s governors are having a little pow wow in D.C. and Donald Trump is expected to say “hello.” With Obamacare in the spotlight (Medicaid is paid by the states and the federal government), there is a lot of pressure to figure out what’s what with this whole “repeal and replace” talk.
The governors will address the press at 12 p.m. EST, during Cavuto: Coast to Coast.
Plus, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgam will react to the meeting, today at 3 p.m. EST on Countdown to the Closing Bell.
