New Conference Tuesday in Montgomery Regarding Alabama Legislative Response to National Health Care Plan

Alabama Senator Scott Beason has proposed a constitutional amendment (SB-233) which, if enacted, will prohibit any person, employer, or health care provider from being compelled to participate in any health care system. Three similar bills have been proposed in the Alabama House.  Democrats in both chambers have blocked the progress of these bills.

Over fifty organizations and thousands of individuals have signed on to a coalition letter urging legislators to move one of these bills “through both houses and to the people for a vote.”

On Tuesday, March 30, Senator Beason, Eagle Forum of Alabama Executive Director Brooklyn Burgess and Alabama Republican Liberty Caucus Media Director Stephen Gordon will be conducting a news conference on the State House stairs in Montgomery at 11:30 a.m.  Candidates for public office, representatives of state organizations, local and regional Tea Party leaders and members of the state legislature will also be on hand to field questions from the media immediately following the news conference.

Here’s a bill we can all get behind
