This bill is scheduled to be heard in the House Insurance and Commerce Committee, Room 149, State Capitol, tomorrow, Wednesday, at 10 am. Try to be there if you can. It is important that we have a crowd there to show our opposition. If it passes, shout out for a roll call vote.
HB 2138, “AN ACT TO ENSURE CONTINUED LOCAL REGULATION OF INDIVIDUAL HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE BY ENABLING THE INSURANCE COMMISSIONER TO CONTINUE SERVING ARKANSANS; TO IMPLEMENT FEDERAL HEALTHCARE REFORM; AND TO CREATE THE ARKANSAS HEALTH BENEFITS EXCHANGE; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.”
We need you all at the Capitol tomorrow! Looks like Beebe is trying to go around our Legislature to make Arkansas the first state to implement Obamacare. If you are ever going to show up at the Capitol, do it TOMORROW MORNING! It is going to take RAW NUMBERS to make the Governor a believer!
Well.. get this… Our Socialistic Governor met with Mr. Obama recently. Our governor has agreed that Arkansas will be the first state to implement Obamacare. Mr. Beebe announced this to the leadership at the Capitol yesterday. He will be changing Medicare by his own power, very likely in April or May. He is clearly on the side of the Socialist. After learning this Mr. Garner will not be presenting his capital gains tax bill tomorrow.
