Weatherford has said Florida can't count on the federal government  -  which under the ACA would fund 000 percent of Medicaid expansion for the first three years of the plan and 00 percent thereafter  -  providing the promised funding, and the state would be on the hook for coverage it can't afford. Yet even the staunchly conservative Scott said he's willing to try expansion for at least the initial three years, citing the need to try to help Florida's uninsured.
