Sen. Judson Hill Says Federal Health Reform Efforts Trample States’ Rights
ATLANTA (June 24, 2009) – Sen. Judson Hill (R-Marietta) this week joined his colleagues of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) in passing a resolution deeming federal health reform anti-competitive and oppressive to states’ rights. Federal efforts to establish a Medicare-modeled “public plan” and a national health insurance exchange would trample states’ rights and lead Americans down the road to single-payer health care, said ALEC, a nonpartisan organization of 1,800 state legislators nationwide.
