Tonight another state puts a firm boot on the neck of Washington D.C.
The “Montana Health Care Freedom Act” otherwise known as Referendum 122, prohibits the state and federal governments from requiring the purchase of health insurance or imposing any penalty, tax, fee or fine on those who do not purchase health insurance.
The prohibition does have some restrictions, but the good thing about this…these rules are being set by the state of Montana, not the the Federal Government .
Referendum 122 Passed 66% YES to 34% NO
This makes Montana the 3rd state to nullify Obamacare after the SCOTUS decision that called it “constitutional” this summer.
The interesting thing about Montana’s nullification measure is the wording…
THE LAW READS
The state or federal government MAY NOT:
(a) mandate or require a person or entity to purchase health insurance coverage as
defined in 33-22-140; or
(b) impose a penalty, tax, fee, or fine of any type if a person or entity declines to
purchase health insurance coverage.
This Law is effective January 1, 2013. Exactly one year prior to the proposed implementation of Obamacare.
The People of Montana have spoken loud and clear, and the message is…
We don’t need no stinkin’ permission to exercise our rights!
