The bill aims to block part of the federal health care law that requires people to buy health insurance.
From WTVD-TV:
Republican legislators are doing what they can to find enough votes to override Governor Perdue’s veto of House Bill number 2.
The bill would block part of the federal health care law that requires people to buy health insurance or face a penalty.
Governor Perdue said she believes this is all politics at play.
“I actually continue to believe this bill is a political distraction,” Governor Perdue said. “It’s been a political distraction from the start.”
Perdue believes the issue of requiring Americans to buy health insurance or face a fine will end up in the Supreme Court.
