Kansas Senator Mary Pilcher-Cook of Shawnee, along with colleagues in
the Kansas House from Wichita and Emporia, is planning an attempt to
amend the Kansas Constitution, should Congress pass health reforms
that mandate everyone carry health insurance. The amendment would
allow the state to basically opt-out of such legislation. Cook tells
KMBZ it would need the support of two-thirds of lawmakers, and then a
thumbs up from the Kansas people on the 2010 ballot.
