The legal battle over implementation of the voter-approved expansion of Medicaid is heating up. Advocates for expansion say Gov. Paul LePage and the Department of Health and Human Services are acting in bad faith and want the court to step in. Maine Public senior political correspondent Mal Leary spoke with Maine Things Considered host Ed Morin. Morin: What are the advocates asking the court to do? Leary: Maine Equal Justice Partners, through their attorneys, are asking the Superior Court to find the state in contempt of the court order to file the expansion plan with federal regulators.
