Calif. Gop Urges Suit Over Health Care Overhaul

Republican state senators called on California Attorney General Jerry Brown Tuesday to join other states and sue the federal government over health care reform.

The legislators said Congress cannot force people to buy health insurance or any other products.

Attorneys general in 13 other states have already filed suit against the health care overhaul that President Barack Obama signed into law. The bill will require most Americans to carry health insurance.

“I think that many Californians share the same view that this is the greatest expansion of government in a generation,” said Senate Minority Leader Dennis Hollingsworth, R-Murrieta.

State Sen. Tom Harman, R-Huntington Beach, sent the letter to Brown.

“The federal government is limited in what it can and can’t do by the Constitution,” Harman said, calling the measure a violation of the commerce clause.

Brown issued a statement saying he had instructed his deputies to review the claims made by the senators.

However, Brown, a Democrat and former two-term governor, noted that all but one of the 13 attorneys general who vowed legal action were Republicans.

“Health care is not the place, with people’s lives at stake, to engage in poisonous partisanship,” Brown said in the statement.

Republicans seeking their party’s nomination for governor, Steve Poizner and Meg Whitman, opposed the health care package and supported a state lawsuit.

Poizner, the state insurance commissioner, said consumers could face higher health insurance premiums and an onerous mandate to get health insurance whether they want it or not.

Whitman campaign spokeswoman Sarah Pompei called the health care plan a “new, big government program.”

The Republican lawmakers also decried what they called an unfunded mandate, estimating the plan would cost California taxpayers billion.

Sen. Tony Strickland, R-Thousand Oaks, said voters should have final approval over the measure.

“It’s clear to me that people’s voices are not being heard in Washington, D.C., or in Sacramento,” Strickland said. “At a time when we a have high unemployment rate, this is going to be devastating to our California economy.”

The California Democratic Party said the health care overhaul will provide insurance coverage to 7.3 million Californians who do not currently have it and give a tax credit to some 390,000 small businesses in the state.

Democratic Governors Voice Concern Over Health Care Bill

Republican governors are not alone in being concerned about what the proposed health care legislation might mean for their already overstrained budgets: Democrats share the same worries.         “We’ve got concerns,” Gov. Jack Markell of Delaware said in an interview Wednesday, hours before getting elected as the chairman of the Democratic Governors Association. “And we’re doing our best to communicate them. We understand the need to get something done, and we’re supportive of getting something done. But we want to make sure it’s done in a way that state budgets are not negatively impacted.”

From the start, Republican governors have been more outspokenly critical about the health care legislation – in particular, the bill proposed by Harry Reid of Nevada, the Senate majority leader – which they said would saddle them with millions of dollars in additional Medicaid costs as insurance coverage is expanded. At their own meeting two weeks ago in Texas, Republican governors declared Democrats felt the same way as they did, but were less apt to say it out of loyalty to President Obama.

Asked about that, Mr. Markell responded: “Perhaps we’ve expressed some of our concerns less publicly. But I believe all governors are certainly concerned about what the potential impact is of some of these bills.”

Mr. Markell said that there was no division between governors and the administration on the need to get some sort of health care bill through; he said that he was reminded of the need in conversations with small businesses struggling with health care costs and constituents who have been unable to get health care coverage. He said his concern was some of the bills being considered would do that by shifting some of the costs to the state – but said he remained confident, after conversations with the White House, that would not be the case.

Whatever the outcome of the health care deliberations, Mr. Markell said he did not believe it would affect the electoral outcome for governors in 2010, a year in which 19 gubernatorial seats currently held by Democrats are on the ballot. The key issues, the governor said, were jobs and the economy.

And to that regard, Mr. Markell said that he was hopeful that the White House and Congress would dispose of the health care deliberations and move on to discussing some sort of jobs creation legislation.

“Right now I believe we need to be focused really significantly on the state level on jobs and on the economic climate overall,” he said. Asked if Mr. Markell thought Mr. Obama and Congress were spending too much time on health care at the expense of the economy, he responded: “Well I feel it would be terrific if they could finish health care and move on.”

Health Care Reform Weekly Easytoinsureme Health Insurance Quotes

Week of January 25, 2010

The sudden halt to health care reform’s steady march forward came as a shock to many who saw an upset win by Republican Senator-elect Scott Brown in Massachusetts as all but impossible. But if many took delight in the election outcome’s impact on health reform legislation, Aetna Chairman Ronald A. Williams made it clear in a New York Times story last week that the country still needs meaningful health care reform – reform that addresses access as well as affordability. Everyone benefits by health reform that gets at the factors driving soaring health care costs and the loss of coverage for so many Americans. While Congress thinks carefully about its next steps, Aetna will continue to support meaningful health care reform and continue to offer responsible solutions to legislative leaders.

The election of Republican Scott Brown as the new senator from Massachusetts has derailed the Congressional health care reform train, less because Brown denies Democrats the 60th filibuster-proof vote, though that is certainly a major result, and more because it collapsed the Democratic political house of cards by highlighting the power of independent voters and the frustrated anti-incumbent mood of the electorate. Whether Democrats can regroup from this wake-up call will consume their leadership from now until the November off-year elections. How Democrats handle, and how Republicans respond to, health care reform in the short term and other key priorities – such as jobs, the economy, energy and security – over the rest of the session will underscore all Congressional decisions from now until the first Tuesday in November. In short, the 2010 elections started in earnest with Brown’s victory.

Once Democrats get past the shock of losing Kennedy’s seat, they will have to grapple with health care reform, one way or the other. The early favorites, including passing the Senate bill “as is” in the House, have been dropped for now as Democrats recognize the political cost of ramming through something unpopular propelled by political muscle only. Passing a smaller, less invasive and mostly Democratic bill has only a slightly better chance, as Republicans are not too likely to “crossover” quite yet. There is a growing interest in using reconciliation (the 51-vote tactic) down the road to pass a Democratic-only bill, once the House and Senate Democratic leadership can agree to a single bill. And, there is the outside chance that Democrats will see the Massachusetts election as an imperative to craft a bipartisan bill with Republicans that can secure 70-plus votes in the Senate. Wednesday’s State of the Union speech, followed by the party issues retreats later in the week, will go a long way toward determining which path will be pursued.
