State exchange bills are back! The dream contract of every insurance company, and the State of Michigan's DTMB.
Scheduled the 18th, cancelled the 20th.
You know they'll be back, because the fiscally-illiterate and freedom-deaf longing of leftists for state Obamacare never dies.
This bill package is a reintroduction of bills we posted in 2024.
https://mihealthfreedom.org/community/difs-leo/michigan-senate-passes-sb-633-package-creates-a-michigan-health-care-insurance-marketplace-managed-by-difs/
The only surprise is the final bill repealing emergency refills. What's up with that - moved to the exchange act instead?
