From NewsObserver.com:
There have been rallies, petitions, letters, news releases and political maneuvers meant to get Attorney General Roy Cooper to say “yes.”
So far, he has said nothing.
Cooper has been the focus of pressure, particularly by conservatives, to have North Carolina join a lawsuit challenging the legality of the new federal health care law. Attorneys general in 13 states, including South Carolina, have filed a suit that claims the law “represents an unprecedented encroachment on the liberty of individuals” and that the federal government does not have the right to force Americans to have health insurance. A 14th state, Virginia, filed its own lawsuit.
