    Autism Mandate Out of Committee

    SB 414, 415, and 981 fast-tracked out of Health Policy Committee yesterday.

    If folks do not approve of this new health insurance mandate that will hike their insurance premiums, I would strongly suggest they contact their Senators NOW.

    Remember, the majority of House Republicans rejected the autism coverage mandate in 2009, here and here.  Andy Dillon and House Democrats actually passed those bills.  Senate Majority Leader Mike Bishop let this unnecessary legislation die in the December 2010 lame duck session without vote.

    Perhaps those actions are just reflective of when Republican Legislators were attuned to the TEA movement that gave them the control of every lever of power in Lansing they now enjoy?  Nothing else can reasonably explain what today's Majority is doing with associating the Republican name to this.

    ...that mandate about interfering with healthcare from the grassroots not too long ago.

    Just counting down the days until they hand the House over to the democrats.
