Eligiblity for Medicaid is limited, and many important groups are "optional" which essentially means "no, if Republicans control any branch of your state government".
Yes. In Texas, you need to be pregnant, have a child under age 18, blind, disabled, or over 65 to qualify, in addition to the income requirements: https://www.benefits.gov/benefit/1640%7D
