Iowa Joins Lawsuit Against Obamacare. YES!

From the DesMoinesRegister.com on Tuesday, January 18th:
Gov. Terry Branstad has joined 25 other states in a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the health care reform bill approved last year by Congress, a Branstad aide confirmed today.

Branstad, a Republican, joined the lawsuit on behalf of Iowa taxpayers, said Tim Albrecht, the governor’s spokesman. The suit challenges the individual mandate of the health care reform, as well as the expansion of Medicaid, the state-federal health insurance program for low-income people, he said.
I'm not a big Branstad fan, but I do like this.

  1. Heard that Tom Miller was filing a brief in favor of Obamacare. Sort of canceling each other out.

    I read a comment criticizing Branstad for hiring Findley and I think this is the reason why.
