Bill McCollum Says No To Florida Obamacare
Jacksonville, Florida - Bill McCollum would like to keep Florida health insurance programs just the way they are. On Thursday, 20 states argued in a Pensacola, Fla., courtroom against not only the crazy individual mandate in the new health care reform, but also the massive Medicaid expansion that places all of the state budgets and taxpayers in a loss. The suit differs from that brought by the state of Virginia, but we agree that the health reform law crosses legal boundaries. Mr. Obama’s administration has threatened that court rulings against this legislation will devastate efforts to provide a single payor system. Yet until struck down, ObamaCare will be a disaster for our Constitution
Health-care reform is critical - but it should not come at the expense of our citizens’ individual rights nor by jeopardizing the role of the states in our system of federalism.
