The Biden campaign seized on the expansion of Medicaid coverage in North Carolina on Friday to blast former President Trump over his renewed vow to get rid of the Affordable Care Act, potentially threatening health care coverage for millions of Americans.

“Elections have consequences and today, because the people of North Carolina elected Governor Roy Cooper, 600,000 North Carolinians will be eligible for coverage under Medicaid,” Biden campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez ...
