Docs Brace for Medicaid Cuts, New Greenbelt Speed Check, and Boise River Float Finale

Ahead of Labor Day weekend, we’re sifting through the headlines that raised our eyebrows this week. Host Lindsay Van Allen is chatting with community member Ashley Townend about the upcoming Medicaid cuts that will put our medical providers in a bind. With the state’s new $80 million deficit projections, is this just the beginning of attacks on Medicaid? Meanwhile, Boise city officials are hoping a new Greenbelt speed ordinance will increase safety on the popular path. And you just have a few more days to enjoy floating the Boise River during the official season! Want some more Boise news?
