On August 3, Missourians will be the first in the nation to vote on Obamacare. The deadline to register to vote for this election is July 7--just a few days away.
Why is this election so important? If Missouri is successful in passing this legislation, you can be sure that other states will follow.
STATE OF MISSOURI
SPECIAL ELECTION
STATUTORY MEASURE
PROPOSITION C
Proposed by the 95th General Assembly
(Second Regular Session) SS SCS HCS House Bill 1764
Shall the Missouri Statutes be amended to:
• Deny the government authority to penalize citizens for refusing to purchase private health insurance or infringe upon the right to offer or accept direct payment for lawful healthcare services?
• Modify laws regarding the liquidation of certain domestic insurance companies?It is estimated this proposal will have no immediate costs or savings to state or local governmental entities. However, because of the uncertain interaction of the proposal with implementation of the
federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, future costs to state governmental entities are unknown.
YES
NO
Red State has a piece on why this election is so important. There's also an organization called Missourians for Health Care Freedom that has an informative website.
This is also a primary election, so there are plenty of things to consider. You might want to start doing your homework now.
