This is a serious situation and one that cannot be casually dismissed. “I urge Wisconsin Health Services Secretary Dennis Smith to meet with these legislators and fully explain the situation regarding Family Care. “My office will continue to work with CMS to find a resolution on this issue that is in the best interests of the people of Wisconsin.” ### For “Moore” News Updates Follow Gwen Moore on Twitter @RepGwenMoore and Like Gwen Moore on Facebook
