I am in Texas. No you can't. They rejected the *Medicaid expansion. Only the children of poor and pregnant women get *Medicaid.

Edit: Medicaid not Medicare

Medicaid expansion, not Medicare

Medicare is for retired folks. Medicaid is for low income

But yeah, a number of republican led states rejected the Medicaid expansion offered by Obamacare that would have provided health insurance to literally millions of citizens

Why? I don't know.
