Democratic AG Joins Fight Against Nelson ObamaCare Deal

by Stephan Tawney on January 6, 2010

Oklahoma’s Democratic Attorney General, Drew Edmondson, has joined the fight mounted by 12 other attorneys general against the Senate’s deal with Sen. Ben Nelson (D-NE). The deal, which was reached to ensure a “yea” vote from Nelons, excludes Nebraska from having to pay for Medicaid increases.

Edmondson questions whether the deal is even constitutional. While the other forty-nine states would be forced to self-fund the Medicaid increases, Nebraska’s share would be funded by the federal taxpayers. In other words, one state is being treated better by Congress than the other forty-nine.
