Sen. Zipperer, Rep. Vos Introduce Obamacare Opt-Out Bill

It’s official!   Senator Rich Zipperer and Rep. Robin Vos have introduced SB 92, legislation to allow Wisconsin to opt-out of abortion coverage in the health care exchanges set up by Obamacare.   The bill has 10 Senate sponsors and 29 Assembly sponsors.

There is not much a state can do to impact the abortion components which are part of the national health care law.   Obamacare does allow states to opt-out of abortion coverage in the health care exchanges.  SB 92 will accomplish that purpose.

Wisconsin Right to Life praises Sen. Zipperer and Rep. Vos for their excellent work on this bill which they decided to author right after the passage of Obamacare a year ago.   We will be working closely with them to ensure that SB 92 becomes law.
