From Newsobserver.com:
Legislative Republicans previewed a proposal Tuesday that they say would “protect” state residents from Democratic health care proposals.
The Republican leaders said they intend to push a bill during this year’s legislative session that would declare that the federal government could not force state residents to buy health insurance, a key provision of the Democratic health care overhaul.
State Rep. Paul Stam, an Apex Republican and the chamber’s minority leader, said requiring people to buy health insurance is “an assault on the freedom of our people.”
