    North Carolina Senate Passes Health Care Freedom


    Tenth Amendment Center
    February 18th, 2011


    The N. C. Senate this week approved the Health Care Freedom act on a strictly party-line vote of 30-18. The bill now goes back to the House, which has already passed an earlier version, for concurrence with changes made in the Senate.

    The bill, sometimes known as the “Repeal ObamaCare” law would direct the N. C. Attorney General to join one of the law suits now working their way to the U. S. Supreme Court on behalf of North Carolina. The suits, generally, challenge the constitutionality of ObamaCare and specifically the provision that would require every American to buy health insurance or face possible fines and even jail time for failure to do so. Opponents of ObamaCare contend that the Federal Government does not have the delegated authority under the U. S. Constitution to require Americans to buy any particular product.

    The bill is expected to pass the House in short order and will then be sent to Governor Perdue. She is expected to veto the bill but there are indications that her veto would be overridden in the Senate.

    State vs. Federal: The Nullification Movement
    Because the Supreme Court has for many years interpreted the Constitution in a manner to further empower the federal government, states are moving to take power back from the feds through a growing and vibrant nullification movement. By Patrick Krey

    Nullification in a Nutshell
    The modern-day nullification movement has as its genesis the principle of federalism and the writings of James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, in particularly the famous Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions of 1798, supporting the right of states to nullify unconstitutional federal usurpations.

    It's a Law.

    Here's HB 2:

    A law or rule shall not do any of the following:

    (1) Compel a person to (i) provide for health care services or medical treatment for that person or (ii) contract with, or enroll in, a public or private health care system or health insurance plan.
    (2) Interfere with a person’s right to pay directly for lawful health care services or medical treatment to preserve or enhance that person’s life or health.
    (3) Impose a penalty, tax, fee, or fine on a person for (i) providing for, or failing to provide for, health care services or medical treatment for that person or (ii) contracting with, or enrolling in, or failing to contract with or enroll in, a public or private health care system or health insurance plan.
