Wisconsin Republican gubernatorial candidate Rebecca Kleefisch is off the mark suggesting medical assistance enrollments could be easily removed from the rolls and that they are not working.
"There is absolutely no reason why Wisconsin should be facing a worker shortage to the level we are when there are 123,000 more able-bodied childless adults on BadgerCare since the pandemic. We need to get Wisconsinites off welfare and into work that pays!"
Indeed, Gugel also told us that, in Kleefisch’s view, Evers and President Joe Biden are"refusing to remove individuals from Medicaid who should no longer be eligible. The availability of government benefits is a disincentive to work, therefore a contributing factor to the worker shortage problem." On the working front, she said historically more than 45% of those childless adults are employed, adding:"They enroll in BadgerCare Plus because they are underemployed and do not have health insurance available through their jobs."
Jennifer Sereno, the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development’s communications director, pointed to similar statistics and noted they"would appear to undermine the assertion that participation in BadgerCare is affecting employment and labor force participation"Sachin Shivaram, CEO of Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry in Manitowoc, laid out his perspective in a"Since the start of the pandemic, the labor force in America has shrunk by about 4 million people," he wrote.
"The pandemic displaced millions of low-skilled workers in economic sectors like hospitality and retail," Shivaram wrote."But the jobs that are in highest demand now are in sectors like manufacturing and truck driving that generally require specific training."
