Brown, Wyden Introduce Bill to Move Up Date for Health Care Law’s State Waiver Provision - News - Scott Brown

Here's a thought....KILL THE BILL!!!

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Recognizing that what works in Springfield, Oregon, may not always work as well in Springfield, Massachusetts, U.S. Senators Scott Brown (R- Mass.) and Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) introduced legislation that would give states the flexibility to implement their own health care plans when the bulk of the new law goes into effect in 2014. Under the current law, states won’t be able to apply for waivers until 2017. The change would mean that states, with a history of innovating new approaches to health care – like Massachusetts, Oregon and Vermont – could continue those efforts, while other states would have an opportunity to start innovating their own approaches."
