    Kansas Governor Signs Health Care Freedom Act


    Gov. Sam Brownback signed a health care freedom act into law Wednesday morning.

    Provisions in HB2182 target the individual insurance mandate in the federal health care act passed by Congress last year, and prohibit any law from forcing Kansans citizens to purchase health insurance.

    A resident of this state has the right to purchase health insurance or refuse purchase health insurance. The government shall not interfere with a resident’s right to purchase health insurance or with a resident’s right to refuse to purchase health insurance.

    The bill also provides that Kansas residents can pay directly for health care and prohibits punishment for failure to participate in any health care program.

    The government shall not enact a law that would restrict these rights or that would impose a form of punishment for exercising these rights. No provision of this section shall render a resident of this state liable for any punishment, penalty, assessment, fee or fine as a result of such resident’s failure to procure or obtain health insurance coverage or participate in any health care system or plan.

    The legislation overwhelmingly passed the Kansas Senate 38-1, and the amended version passed the House 107-14.

    Sen. Mary Pilcher-Cook (R-Shawnee) gave the people of Kansas credit for the legislative victory.

    “This achievement would not have been possible without the enthusiasm of thousands of Kansas citizens the past two years. Your diligence in contacting your legislators and letting them know how important this legislation is to you undoubtedly got us over the top in the end,” she said. “While our fight for liberty is far from complete, enacting the Health Care Freedom Act is an important achievement in that battle.”

    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.
