Mississippi lawmakers will try to negotiate on expanding Medicaid in one of the poorest states in the U.S. after the Senate voted Thursday for a vastly different plan than one proposed by the House. The upper chamber's proposal would insure fewer people and bring less federal money to the state than the version approved by the House last month. Senators debated the bill for nearly two hours before approving it in a 36-16 vote.
