Expand Medicaid

**Please note we started collecting petitions again on February 1, 2026, so if you signed before, those petitions are no longer valid, and you must sign again.**

3.7 million Floridians are uninsured or losing health coverage soon. You can help!

Expanding who qualifies for Medicaid (called Medicaid Expansion or MedEx) would make affordable health care available to hundreds of thousands of Floridians. The federal funding is already there to make it happen.

We can get MedEx on the ballot for voter approval in 2026. We just need you.

If you're a US citizen and eligible voter, click here to request your petition to put this issue on the ballot. We need to collect more than 1 million petition signatures, so please share widely with friends, family, and colleagues.
