Is it really complicated?

Our state legislators have priorities. Redo the state house for the tune of $249 million and cut services to people with disabilities that are proven to get people back to work. It took 2 week to begrudgingly offer up a 5% cut in their own pay for their part time job and only 10 minutes to slash Medicaid. They know when their pay cut ends, they can't say when the cuts to Medicaid will end. When I've asked why they can't restore the cuts I hear, "it's complicated." The proverbial pat on the head. We need a hero. Who will it be?
