AUSTIN, Texas--After a long battle, the state will be allowed to move forward with millions of dollars in cuts to a state Medicaid therapy program that provides services to thousands of disabled children in Texas.Earlier this week, parents of disabled kids finally got a chance to go before lawmakers.But Friday, The Texas Supreme Court said it would not hear their case, which leaves the cuts to go into effect.

Texas Supreme Court Allows Medicaid Cuts to Children's Therapy to Proceed
A significant cut to the amount of money Texas pays therapists who treat children with disabilities was finally cleared to take effect — more than one year after state lawmakers originally ordered it — when the Texas Supreme Court on Friday declined to hear a lawsuit over the budget cut's legality.Last year, a group of concerned Texans filed a lawsuit seeking to block the $350 million cut to Medicaid, the federal-state insurance program for the poor and disabled, from taking effect.That group included speech, physical and occupational therapy providers and the families of children who receive their service.
