If Pennsylvania health insurance is controlled by the government then we will have less freedom to make the health care choices that are best for individuals and our families. “A government requirement to purchase Pennsylvania health insurance is ineffective, costly and arguably an unconstitutional infringement upon states’ rights,” says Matt Baker (R-Bradford/Tioga).
The current bill proposed will reject any law that would penalize a person or employer for not participating in the purchase of Pennsylvania health insurance. Pennsylvania joins several states across the nation to introduce bills aimed at opposing possible federal health insurance mandates.
