JUNEAU, Alaska —Alaska Gov. Sean Parnell said he won't implement the federal health-care overhaul after a judge in Florida struck down the law as unconstitutional.
...

Mr. Parnell, who sought the advice of his attorney general amid concerns implementing the law would violate his oath of office, told the Juneau Chamber of Commerce the state would pursue lawful, market-based solutions to making insurance affordable and accessible to Alaskans.

He said the Florida judge's ruling is the law of the land, as it pertains to Alaska, barring implementation of the federal law here. He said the state will pursue options of its own instead.
