Should we let our baby watch TV?
My wife and I want to limit how much time our child spends in front of the television and carefully choose the things he watches as he grows older. But already, at 6 months old, he seems fascinated with the sounds and movement on the screen. Should we cut out TV for the time being? What's the best strategy for establishing good routines now, so TV watching won't get out of control later?

Should t.v. be used as a substitute for direct interaction and stimulation? Obviously not. Although I agree that children's exposure to tv should be minimal, the reality for many parents is that, on occasion, t.v. can provide a much-needed reprieve. I love my son dearly and work tirelessly to be the best mom I can. Yet, my reality, which includes being a mom (whose son is not in daycare) and a graduate student, means that sometimes I am so exhausted I NEED to put my 15-month-old son in his playpen and pop in a DVD. Personally, I'd rather have my son watch a video for 30 min and get the rest and rejuvenation I need to care for him the remainder of the day/evening than to unintentionally express frustration and irritation with him because I am too tired to monitor my emotional reactions. When parents are exercising caution and using t.v. judiciously, we shouldn't be made to feel guilty (either explicitly or implicitly) about our decision to make use of a children's video.

My 11 month old daughter absolutly LOVES to watch the Noggin channel- which is devoted to preschoolers, no commercials. She especially loves the in-between show cartoon Moose A. Moose, and waves and claps whenever he comes on! I leave it on most of the day, but she still plays with her toys and crawls around when it's on, and is still very interested in anything else that may be going on in the house while it's on. It doesn't seem to interfere with her developement or interest in play, so I don't see any problem with it. We do many other activities, walks, day trips etc. As far as her watching other programs, she won't watch it if "Daddy's shows" are on anyway, unless there's music on! I used to object to her watching tv, but now I just think that most parents, especially new parents (like me!) analyze things way too much. Most things in moderation are okay-- my brothers and I watched plenty of tv when we were kids, and we are all physically and mentally fit adults with good jobs and nice families. "Back then" there weren't all these studies going on about everything, and most of us turned out just fine anyway! I also think that when you try to hold things back from children, they often become more facinated with them than they would've been otherwise-that's simply human nature. -- just my thoughts, good luck to all!posted 10/27/2006 by MommaDoo27
My 11 mnth old has had the TV on from the beginning. Although, she has never been fixated on it. She will watch it for a few minutes then move around or play with toys. If music comes on, she'll dance or if there is clapping, she'll clap with it. If the TV is on or off, she doesn't seem to care. I think as long as your child can do other things while the TV is on, then you should be fine. But if your child is always fixed on it, then I would consider looking at getting some books that talk and sing or other toys that talk to your child like the TV does. We found a channel on our On Demand and it has free kids channels on it and a lot of Nursery Rhyme video's that my husband plays during the day while he is working and she is playing.posted 06/04/2007 by Acottle
Look, sometimes you just need a little break, and it's likely better for the baby that you recharge somehow. TV has only been around for what, 60-70 years? And everyone is an expert on children's "shortened attention spans" attributable to too much TV. The truth is, I haven't been able to find ONE ACTUAL study about TV's effects on children (other than those based on a TELEPHONIC SURVEY, and sorry people, but that just neither credible nor an accurate scientific measure of the subject). Also, it's quite curious that I spent countless hours in front of the television growing up and I am highly focused (even when a child) - and I grew up to be a successful lawyer (not too bad for a couch potato). TV is modern-day story telling and exposes all of us to things we would otherwise never see/know. I think moderation and common sense are key. I'll watch TV with my 7 mo-old in his activity center, entertained with his toys there - I keep the volume low and the programming baby-friendly. :)posted 10/19/2007 by mamilu
I have a ten month old daughter, and I'm not going to let her watch any tv until she's two. Once she turns two, however, it's on. I Love New York, Animal House, you name it. In fact, we're not going to send her to school, we're just going to buy some of those educational dvds and let the tv do the talking. Who needs real human contact now that we have technology? Seriously, though, a little tv isn't so bad. Someone compared tv to chocolate chip cookies and then about how obesity kills all these people every year. It's just a matter of common sense. You can have a cookie every now and then (and so can your kid), but don't have cookies for dinner all the time. So what if you pop in a Baby Einstein every now and then to take a little break from the little monster. Don't make it a regular thing, but do have a cookie every once in a while and relax. As a culture we're so wound up sometimes - we should just relax a little and enjoy life sometimes too.posted 08/31/2007 by msguerra
American Acadamy of Pediatrics recommends no TV for children under the age of 2 and only 1/2 hour for kids over 2. Even after that it is better to watch it with them. My son is 2 and daughter is 1. I find they will play with blocks or look at books and entertain themselves pretty well without TV. I know how tempting it is to use TV as a babysitter, but if you take a little time away from it, it becomes obvious how mind-numbing TV can be.posted 12/10/2006 by AXYF
It's sad but true-tv is not good for babies. It's important for parents to trust their instincts , but do the research: there is no educational benefit for a three month old baby to watch tv, or any baby under two. "Parents take away crucial life experiences from their child every time they pop in Baby Einstein" No child under age two should watch television at all, the Academy of American Pediatrics advised in 1998. Doctors blame TV for increasing aggression and obesity in children, now they add ADHD risk to early TV use.posted 05/11/2007 by sooperdooper
For me, the real issue is not about the content of the television programing when we are talking about infants viewing tv. Instead, I have serious concerns that simply my baby's exposure to television is hampering important brain development. I keep reading article after article linking tv exposure to an increase in ADD and ADHD. According to some research, the tv is overstimulating for the baby and permanently affects the neural pathways in the baby's brain. Down the road, this can lead to shorter attention spans and other learning roadblocks. For me, it is those long terms effects thaat have me worried. I want to create an environment that fosters my child's ultimate potential. That being said, I don't think parents should be tv nazis and keep the child away from tv especially as they get older when they can actually understand content for the tv. And I agree that exposure to tv can be important for social interactions with other children. I am sure nobody wants to have the child who gets made fun of by peers because they don't know who Dora is. So when children are preschool age, I think we can begin to talk about balancing tv with other activities and what's educational on tv and how much our child should watch. But for little babies, this is a time when their little brains are just being molded and I just don't see how the overstimulating tv has a place in their lives. This is just my opinion, and I know many parents don't feel the tv is that harmful to babies. But at the very least, let's call a spade a spade. Babies are watching a video or a program so that mommy can make dinner or change the laundry. We use the tv as a distraction for our little babies. I am guilty of it too, but the tv just isn't a true learning tool for a three month old. These babies are learning core simple concepts like spacial and contingent logic, problem solving, language, and cognitive skills. Sure, a educational video can boast that it will helps develop language skills, or some other basic skill, in a infant. But I think active learning is always going to be a better tool than the passive tv. And no matter what, I think there is still the core problem that the tv is overstimulating and can affect attention span and cncentration. I think it is far more important that my child someday can sit in a lecture hall and stay focused on their professor for a very important three hour lecture than for her to be able to say some random word six months earlier than her peers just because she watched a whole bunch of videos. Maybe some of the research overstates its data with regard to tv's effect on babies, but it just seems like a good policy to start out keeping tv to minimum.posted 02/01/2005 by Forbin'sgirl
My 3 1/2 month old loves watching entertainment... me! It's so much more gratifying to be the one singing, dancing, holding up pictures and books to illustrate new words, and guiding my baby in general. I have read that the problem with TV is that it is a passive experience. Interacting with your child is a two-way communication, where neither of you can be passive. Even independent floor play is more interactive for the child than watching TV. I'm doing my best to avoid TV for the first couple of years. My husband and I wind down with an hour or two of TV at the end of the day after the baby has gone to sleep.posted 11/29/2006 by a BabyCenter Member
I think most parents are uninformed about the effects television has on the development of a child. Studies have proven that today's television leads to attention difficulties and over stimulation which causes all sorts of problems including sleep disorders. This is due to the fast pace of television and the constant bright flashing lights. I don't agree with putting a child,especially a baby in front of a tv. Children can learn everything they need to learn from books and mom & dad. It definately takes some time and patience It's just good parenting.posted 03/10/2007 by slbrandonot

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- A teacher wanted on child cruelty charges has turned herself in.
Francine Wynn, a former kindergarten teacher at Copeland Elementary, is accused of placing a student in a closet as punishment for misbehaving.
Superintendent Dr. Frank Roberson says she was given the option to resign as a teacher, which she did, and was transferred to the Transportation Department. Roberson says she will finish out this school year in transportation and will retire at the end of this school year.
The school district worked with the Sheriff's Office to investigate the allegations.

Tobacco farmers in Tanzania are set to establish their own bank to begin with a capital of 6bn/- next month. The aim of setting up the bank is, among other things, to enable them secure loans easily.
Currently tobacco farmers only access loans from few commercial banks such as CRDB, National Microfinance Bank (NMB) and Azania Bank which dish out money at very high interest rates thus obstructing smallholder farmers from procuring loans.
Speaking to this paper on the phone yesterday, the chairperson of Tanzania Tobacco Farmers Association, who is also the MP for Mpanda-Rural, Moshi Kakoso, said the society has chosen Tabora municipality to be the headquarters of the bank because a quarter of tobacco farmers are found in the region.
"We expect more smallholder farmers to be cooperative in the founding of the bank because their presence in the setting up of the bank is necessary," Kakoso said.
According to Kakoso, to get a loan from the bank, every party should have at least 2m/- in deposits, while the existing parties' starts from the level of smallholder farmers in rural areas to farmers.
However, he added that, the association has decided that it will not sell tobacco in Shillings but in US dollars focusing on more profit to the farmers.
He said the society also wants the government to uphold to its 2009 decision aimed at increasing tobacco production from 58,702 tonnes to 60,000 tonnes.
Kakoso explained that, tobacco farmers, through their cooperatives and primary societies, will be the source to their agricultural inputs using bank credits.
The procured inputs will then be distributed to society members on loan basis. The members will then sell their harvests in cured tobacco through their societies which would maintain accounts with the loaning bank.
Previously, tobacco emerged as one of the main sources of government revenue among the total traditional exports, according to a Bank of Tanzania monthly economic review.
By the same vein, official government figures show that a total of 340bn/- was collected as tax from tobacco in the last five years.
About 52bn/- was collected in 2003/2004, some 59bn/- in 2004/2005, whereas 62bn/-was collected in 2005/2006.
At least 77bn/- was collected in 2006/2007 and 90bn/- was collected in 2007/2008.
Tobacco production rose to 59 million kgs in 2009 up from 22 million kgs in 2000 resulting in local farmers to earn as much as between 300,000/- and 500,000/- per ha in the previous season.
Globally, there is an oversupply situation resulting from increased worldwide production and reduced consumption due to the world economic recession, smoking restrictions/bans, increased taxation on tobacco products and tobacco products regulations.

Pianist George Colligan stole the set with a display of technique that inspired a standing ovation.-Harvey Siders, Jazz Times, in a review of a Ravi Coltrane concert.
Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, the multi-talented Debbie Deane grew up listening to Carole King, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell and Steely Dan. She found herself driven to explore the fertile ground of music and lyrics. Her older brother introduced her to folk, funk and fusion. She listened to all the great divas in the folk, pop and jazz worlds, and developed an intense interest in groove music and jazz harmony. Music was the ultimate refuge.
After earning a degree in English Literature, Debbie embarked on her music career. She studied jazz intensively at Bostons Berklee College of Music, honing the piano skills that she continues to display as a singer-songwriter. At first her songwriting and singing came as an afterthought, but then took the forefront. In the last five years shes shown impressive development on the guitar as well.
In her performing and recording life, Debbie has had the good fortune to work with top-tier jazz musicians who share her interest in quality songwriting people like drummer Brian Blade and saxophonist Joshua Redman. Upon moving back to Brooklyn, she lived in a jazz den with some of the citys most promising jazz musicians, including saxophonist Seamus Blake, drummer Marc Miralta and pianists John Stetch and George Colligan. Everyone came through our place, says Debbie. The people Ive played with, theyre all my friends and theyve known me, theyve been my roommates and people I went to school with. Their presence on Debbies recordings and at her live shows is a powerful endorsement.
Debbie continues to gig extensively in New York and beyond. She is proud to be a part of Brooklyn Above Ground, a diverse music collective that has donated proceeds from its compilation CD to the grass-roots organization World Hunger Year. Debbies songs have appeared on TVs Party of Five, on Jennifer Love Hewitts album Lets Go Bang, and in a number of films. In addition, she is a cast member of the Great American Pop Show: the History of American Popular Music, which tours elementary schools in and around New York City. Teaching music is a big part of her life.
Her self-titled debut CD, produced by bassist Jeff Andrews and featuring Wayne Krantz, Joshua Redman, Brian Blade, Phil Markowitz and more, was licensed by ESC Records and released in Europe in 2005. She was featured on Radio France, and on Lufthansa Airline's Inflight program in 2006. The label also honored Debbie by including her rendition of Any World (That Im Welcome To) on the 2006 compilation Maestros of Cool: a Tribute to Steely Dan.
In June 2007 Debbie releases her second album, the richly rewarding Grove House, on RKM Records, a label run by the illustrious jazz saxophonist Ravi Coltrane. Once again, she brings warmth, sophistication and rock-n-roll edge to the table, leading another cast of fine musicians as she sings of love, ambivalence and freedom.

Milwaukee Co. Zoo welcomes new female giraffe calf
A new reticulated female giraffe has arrived at the Milwaukee County Zoo, officials reported Friday.
The new female was born in the early evening April 26 to first-time mother, Marlee and dad, Bahatika. Veterinarians completed the calf's first exam April 27 and recorded a weight of about 130 pounds and a height of about 5 feet, 7 inches.
The new calf joins Tafari, a male giraffe born at the zoo in September 2015. The public was invited to help choose a name for Tafari after he was born last year. More than 5,000 votes were cast.
Zookeepers and medical staff have been monitoring both the mother and baby giraffe, according to a news release from the zoo. Marlee appears calm and attentive to her offspring, which is nursing regularly.
Marlee is 4 years old and arrived at the zoo in 2013 from Zoo Miami. Bahatika is 11 years old and arrived at the Milwaukee County Zoo in 2006 from the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado. He is also the father of Tafari.» Read Full Article

Show about solitary confinement encourages discussion, activism
After being caught with a pair of tweezers in a California prison, Sara Fonseca was sent to solitary confinement, where she spent 23 hours a day in a cell the size of an elevator with no access to phone calls or visitors.
If she climbed up on the toilet, she could speak to other isolated prisoners through the air vents. Sometimes, they would sing together through the vents.
During her nearly three years in solitary, Fonseca wrote letters to Julia Steele Allen, an activist and prison volunteer. Those letters became the basis for a play that aims to show the public what it's like inside a tiny cell — and to inspire people to work for reform.
The play, "Mariposa and the Saint," will be performed Friday at St. Matthew's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Wauwatosa. It was performed Thursday in Milwaukee. After the 45-minute show, audiences hear from formerly incarcerated people who have spent time in solitary confinement and learn how they can help end the practice.
Wisconsin performances are being presented in cooperation with WISDOM, a statewide group of faith leaders and activists seeking a series of reforms here, including: an end to retaliation against inmates and advocates who bring forward complaints about abuses in solitary; an end to stretches of solitary that last more than 15 days; the elimination of solitary altogether for mentally ill inmates and those under 18; and the establishment of a public database to share information about Wisconsin prisoners in solitary.» Read Full Article
Annual Tosa Night Out celebration will relocate to Milwaukee County Zoo
In an effort to bring the focus and fun of the city's annual Tosa Night Out festivities back to neighborhoods and neighborhood associations, this year's event will be relocated to the Milwaukee County Zoo, said Lt. Paul Leist of the Wauwatosa Police Department.
The move is a result of ongoing and anticipated construction happening in and around Hart Park, where the event is normally held.
"Hart Park has been a wonderful home to our Night Out activities since the very beginning," Leist said in an email. "I imagine that once the construction dust settles in and around the park, State Street and the Village area, we will return."
Leist said the event relocated to the zoo before, about 10 years ago, when Hart Park was undergoing construction work.
This year's festivities will include neighborhood block parties on July 30, 31 and Aug. 1. The police department is encouraging as many neighborhoods as possible to host annual block parties during those days; officers plan to attend every block party that weekend.» Read Full Article
District leaders question use of Wauwatosa schools as voting locations
The Wauwatosa School Board plans to review whether local schools should serve as future voting locations after the district dealt with a number of issues during the spring election, held earlier this month.
Currently, of 14 voting locations in Wauwatosa, seven of them are in district schools.
"Every election, there's something that comes up," Superintendent Phil Ertl said during a school board meeting April 25. "During this last election, I had contact with two principals that (said) there were issues in their buildings. One security related and another one student related."
Ertl did not elaborate on those issues during the meeting, but said his biggest concern is the safety of students.
"We've invested a lot of money into security of school buildings, yet we open them wide," Ertl said of election days. "I struggle with it because I think it's great to have our students see people come and engage in the democratic process and vote."» Read Full Article

Wauwatosa West sprinters stand out at Kansas Relays
Wauwatosa West took part in the Kansas Relays last weekend, and coach Jack LoPresti was pleased with his team's performance.
"The Kansas Relays are a great experience for our returning state vets," the veteran coach said. "They also ran great."
The 4x100-meter relay of Azya McLin, Mercy Ndon, Bri Horton and Cheri'A Adams placed sixth overall and ran the fastest time in the state thus far, at 48.85.

"I know the girls were disappointed with sixth, as they had a couple of shaky handoffs on Saturday, but part of the reason you go to a meet like the KU Relays is to get that big meet experience and run your best time of the season (so far), and they did that with the 4x100.» Read Full Article

"We gave away too many points with unforced errors and didn't take advantage of mistakes our opponents were giving us, and at some spots we didn't play up to our ability. That is what was most disappointing. We have to play better."

In the lush climate of Florida, flowers and trees produce abundant blossoms, and the local bees produce some of America's finest honey, naturally flavored with their aromatic pollen. Our signature honey trio offers three favorites – light-bodied Tupelo, medium-bodied Wildflower and full-bodied Orange Blossom – crafted by the bees and carefully harvested by local beekeepers using centuries-old apiarist methods. And because it's never heated, filtered or pasteurized, our raw honey maintains all its natural vitamins, minerals and flavor.
Tupelo Honey: From Gulf County, this rare variety is created by bees who feed on the nectar of blossoms from tupelo gum trees, which bloom for just a few weeks each year.
Wildflower Honey: Legendary for its subtle, complex flavors, this luscious honey is created from the pollen and nectar of more than a dozen different flowers, trees, bushes and grasses in the Florida Panhandle.
Orange Blossom Honey: Created in central and southern Florida by honeybees, our rich, creamy honey has the fruity, floral sweetness of a citrus grove in full bloom.

Homburg Hats
Homburg hats, was once more popular than the fedora throughout Europe and America, give you a classic style for any look, from smart casual to sophisticated chic. Homburg hats, traditionally crafted of wool or felt and adorned with a grosgrain hatband, first became popular in the early 1900s after Edward VII's visit to Bad Homburg, Germany, and stayed fresh in European fashion as British comedian, Tony Hancock used the homburg hat as his signature accessory.
These classic mens hats, formerly used to recognize the elite, blew up in America with the gangster mafia Hollywood blockbuster film The Godfather. Sometimes referred to as Godfather hats, homburg hats stayed on the forefront of men's fashion accessories when West Coast Hip Hop superstars like P. Diddy, Snoop Dogg, and the Notorious B.I.G. added these trendy men's hats to their wardrobes.
Make a statement and be the Don of any outfit when you top off a suit like the Godfather. Our collection of classic homburg hats commands respect and attention. You'll feel like a million bucks without breaking the bank with a homburg hat.

They Let Bobby Brown Out of Jail After Just Nine Hours
On Wednesday morning, BOBBY BROWN turned himself in to begin serving a 55-day sentence for DUI. They let him out 9 HOURS LATER. As usual, it was due to overcrowding in the L.A. County Jail.
--Bobby isn't totally in the clear though. He was released to HOUSE ARREST, which he has to serve for a total of 8 days. And they gave him one of those electronic ankle bracelets to keep him honest.

Sorry . . . There Is No Joe Jonas Sex Tape
If you heard that there was a sex tape kicking around featuring JOE JONAS and his girlfriend using BONDAGE AND S&M GEAR like paddles and ball gags . . . would you believe it?
--Apparently a lot of people did, because the rumor started making the rounds yesterday. But it's not true. At least that's Joe's story.
--His rep says, quote, "There is no truth or validity to the story. It is completely false."
--It probably IS false, because the story is pretty ridiculous.
--A source who SUPPOSEDLY saw the tape says Joe and his girlfriend, Swiss model Blanda Eggenschwiler, made it over a period of several hours, and even had a trusted friend there to do the filming.
--They're also seen smoking pot and downing shots . . . and during the sex there's, quote, "a lot of overly dramatic screaming and moaning."
NBC May Have to Pay Jay Leno a Big Penalty If They Dump Him Early

--But TMZ says that's unlikely, because "when Leno renegotiated his contract during the CONAN O'BRIEN mess, he demanded, and got, several penalty clauses that would make NBC take an ENORMOUS financial hit if they pull the plug early."
--There's no word how much that payout would be, but supposedly Leno made sure it was an INSANE amount. That way, he could essentially guarantee that he wouldn't be replaced early.

WASHINGTON – Fairfax County has gone to Texas to find its new school superintendent.
The Fairfax County School Board has chosen Lubbock, Texas, superintendent Karen Garza to take over Virginia's largest school district.
Before taking the head job in Lubbock, Garza was the chief academic officer and one of the top administrators for the Houston School District, the seventh largest district in the country.
A visit to Lubbock and contract negotiations are needed before Garza's selection would be finalized, the school board said in a news release.
Garza will replace Jack Dale, who announced a year ago he was leaving the job.
"She comes to us with a deep commitment to openness and engagement and is eager to work collaboratively in the best interest of all students. The Board looks forward with great excitement to working with Dr. Garza as it builds upon past successes and moves forward in a new era for FCPS," said Ilryong Moon, board chair, in a written statement.
The board chose Garza as its preferred candidate April 6 and her selection is just the first step in the final phase of the district's year-long superintendent search.
The board expects to formally hire Garza during an open board meeting later this month. She would start her new job July 1.
Her career as an educator began as an elementary school teacher in 1986. Under Garza's leadership, Lubbock schools have reduced the achievement gap and increased graduation rates. She has emphasized increasing the academic rigor of the district's classes and engaging the community and family to support students.
The school board noted that during Garza's time in Houston, the district became "one of the highest performing urban school systems in the country."
The board interviewed six potential candidates, gleaned from 47 applicants. A stakeholder committee of parents, students and staff also interviewed several semi-finalists.

The pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine helps protect against severe infections due to a group of bacteria called Streptococcus pneumoniae. Infections can occur:
Vaccine - pneumovax; Vaccine - PPSV23; Immunization - pneumovax
After you get this vaccine, your body's immune system learns to attack the Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria if you come in contact with it. This makes you less likely to get sick from an infection due to this bacteria.
No vaccine is 100% effective. So, it is still possible to get an infection from Streptococcus pneumoniae, even after you have been vaccinated.
The vaccine is recommended for:
You need at least one shot of the vaccine. One dose works for most people. You may need a second dose again 5 years later if:
The pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine is not used to protect against pneumococcal diseases in children under age 2. A different vaccine, the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine is routinely given to younger children to protect against disease due to Streptococcus pneumoniae.
Most people have no or only minor side effects from the pneumococcal vaccine. You may have some pain and redness at the place where you get the shot. Serious problems are rare and are mainly due to allergic reactions to a part of the vaccine.
The pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine is an inactivated-bacteria vaccine. You cannot get an infection from receiving this vaccine.
Call your health care provider if moderate or serious side effects appear after the pneumococcal vaccine has been given. Also call if you have any questions or concerns about the vaccine.
Talk to your health care provider before receiving the pneumococcal vaccine if you have a fever or an illness that is more serious than a cold, or if there is a chance you might be pregnant.
Call your health care provider if you are not sure whether you or your child should get or delay the pneumococcal vaccine.

The sight of a vibrant red or green or blue (or the color of your choice) is a cue for me to notice something beautiful in my environment. When I see a stunning sunrise or sunset, I'm reminded to cherish beautiful experiences. When I encounter someone in need, I'm reminded to cherish within me an act of generosity. The Navajo blessing "May you walk in beauty" catches the essence of this spiritual practice. Beauty is both a path you travel and what surrounds you on the path. In the splendor of the creation, we see its outer forms.

The day after a proposed compromise to Medicaid expansion was unveiled by two Maine Senate Republicans, the LePage administration has launched a counter-offensive. The administration said today that "Medicaid expansion is bad for the environment." Commissioners from state natural resource agencies gathered with Department of Health and Human Services officials to make their case, as lawmakers were preparing to take up the Medicaid expansion bill this afternoon. Patty Wight reports.
Connecting Medicaid expansion to the environment may seem a stretch, but Inland Fisheries and Wildlife Commissioner Chandler Woodcock (above, at podium) says the tentacles of the expansion plan reach far beyond the realm of health care.
"The future of Maine is at stake in this discussion," Woodcock said. "And I know you hear the hyperbole all the time. But I'll tell you, I think for the natural resource arena and for Maine, this is the most important discussion that I've been a part of in my lifetime."
Even though the federal government covers 100 percent of the cost the first three years under the Affordable Care Act, the LePage adminstration doesn't believe that will result in enough savings from a healthier population to afford the expansion as federal coverage reduces to 90 percent by 2020.
Maine Department of Health and Human Services Commissioner Mary Mayhew says the state Medicaid program has already doubled in size over the last decade - in both enrollees and cost.
"That growth has come directly at the expense of other significant priorities, both within the Department of Health and Human Services as well as other critical investments in other state agencies," Mayhew said.
The two were joined at an Augusta press conference by Commissioner of Marine Resources Patrick Kelliher, who says his department has little to no funding to address serious issues, such as the shutdown of the shrimp fishery this season and the explosive growth of invasive green crabs.
"The idea of an expansion of this magnitude, the idea of doing it about anything in the future to address those issues, will be severely impacted," Keliher said.
All of the state's natural resource agencies, says the commissioner of the Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry, Walt Whitcomb, have existed in the shadows of the Medicaid program's needs, suffering 13 million in cuts in the past five years.
"On the agricultural side, in '09, one of the last major shifts for Medicaid propping, the agency took a 13 percent in general fund spending cut - in one year," Whitcomb said.
But the argument that Medicaid is cannibalizing other state agencies - a term the LePage administration has used - is just plain wrong, says Democratic Senate President Justin Alfond.
"Ninety percent of the 'cannibals' are children, disabled people and the elderly," Alfond says. "So those are the cannibals, according to Gov. LePage and to all of his commissioners. Ten percent of Medicaid spending is for able-bodied adults - working poor adults of Maine."
Democratic Majority leader Seth Berry says, if anything, Gov. LePage's $400 million in tax cuts in 2011 are responsible for skimpy budgets.
"All of that money was given away in future biennia with absolutely zero plan to pay for it," Berry said. "Democrats warned that it was a time bomb and it was a bad idea."
Hours later, the Health and Human Services Committee considered the bill that's an attempted compromise to expand Medicaid. The key feature is moving Medicaid to a managed care program, while also expanding it.
Republican co-sponsor Sen. Roger Katz says managed care will control costs because outside companies will run Medicaid and receive a flat fee per patient, versus per service. And contracts will require at least a 5 percent reduction in overall costs to the state. Katz says it's time to let someone else run Medicaid.
"This department, and the previous administration's department, and the previous administration's department - nobody has been able to manage the system well," Katz said. "It's a string of problems - cost overruns after cost overruns after cost overruns."
But that's the very reason other Republicans in Augusta say it doesn't make sense to grow the program. Rep. Heather Sirocki points out that federal dollars are already available for those who need healthcare - at federally qualified health centers.
"There are 151 locations throughout the state. They offer free care, sliding scale, so depending on how much money you do make, you may have to pay a little," without the state of Maine, she says, being the middle man for that federal money.
The Health and Human Services Committee will take up the bill again on Thursday for a possible vote.
