Chief Mike Bogle, Capt. Tom Sheston and firefighter Darrin Piatt accept the $1,000 grant given by Walmart to the Centerville Fire Department Wednesday morning during the store's grand opening. The money donated to the fire department will be used to purchase educational materials for the department's "Adopt-A-Firefighter" program, which allows a firefighter to visit all second grade classes every month during the school year.

The Iowegian wants readers to think about the debate Rep. Larry Sheets talks about at the state capital centered on "accepting Medicaid expansion as defined by the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), or choosing to create an Iowa specific health care program. Those who prefer the Medicaid expansion believe the federal government will fulfill its commitments three years from now. Those opposing explain that the federal government is only capable of that by borrowing the money from the Chinese."
So, the question this week is, "Should Iowa accept the federal government's Medicaid expansion or create a health care program specific to the state?"
