Nancy Pelosi famously said, “We have to pass the (health care law) so that you can find out what is in it.”
Now that ObamaCare is law, the mysteries contained within are slowly coming to light.
In order to institute the infamous "individual mandate," ObamaCare bribes each state to set up what is known as a Health Insurance Exchange.
In Michigan, the state has already accepted $41 million, and we are being bribed with $30.9 million MORE in taxpayer dollars from a government that is spiraling towards insurmountable debt.
A vote could happen any day in the Senate and we need you to take two actions now! There is a hearing set for Wednesday, and we must ensure that our legislators know we are not going to stand for ObamaCare in Michigan.
Click here to contact your state senator. Demand that they oppose creating a government exchange and that they refuse to expand Medicaid.

Without a state-created exchange, the individual mandate cannot be enforced.
As in all bureaucracies, there are some major downfalls, not the least of which is the anticipated spike in the cost of insurance.
Establishing a state Health Insurance Exchange as dictated by ObamaCare requires complete submission to federal government regulations and the loss of state sovereignty over all health care issues. The law stipulates that:
“An Exchange may not establish rules that conflict with or prevent the application of regulations promulgated by the Secretary ”
The federal government will dictate such things as:
The insurance providers that may participate
Minimum coverage that must be offered — potentially including elective procedures like breast augmentation and face-lifts
How the exchange is run
I could go on, but I’m certain you recognize the theme. The federal government will control every aspect of your health care.
Our state has already accepted over $41 million to set up the exchange! Now we are being bribed with $30.9 million MORE!
Merely accepting and spending federal funds requires absolute obedience to federal government regulations and the loss of state sovereignty.
A key responsibility of state officials is to protect our sovereignty, yet some of our legislators are saying that because ObamaCare was not overturned, they will betray their duty and submissively comply with the dictates of the law.
And like obedient little children, these turncoats expect you to forget their empty promises, ignore their campaign rhetoric, and blame the federal government for all of the many losses you will suffer as a result.
Click here to sign the petition demanding that the over $41 million in grant funds be returned and all plans to submit to ObamaCare, including expanding Medicaid, be abandoned immediately!
Once you have signed the petition, click here to contact your state senator and tell them directly!
There are over 3 billion reasons why some states are establishing these exchanges — and each reason has a dollar sign attached.
With over $3 billion at stake, it’s easy to understand why greedy politicians have their hands out. These funds are being used all over the country to enrich political allies and the well-connected.
Billions of your taxpayer dollars are being wasted, and you are footing the bill while they steal your freedoms. Those billions will never be returned to our treasury — unless you and I do something to force the issue now.
Tell your legislators you expect them to protect your rights and jealously guard our state sovereignty by refusing to establish a state exchange.
