Ensuring choice on the Minnesota Health Insurance Exchange - Act ...

This past week, we?ve asked our supporters to contact their representatives because today, the Minnesota House of Representatives will debate the best way to establish an on-line health insurance exchange through which thousand of Minnesotans will gain access to affordable health insurance coverage.

And with an amendment to the health insurance exchange that would prohibit health insurance plans from offering abortion coverage, there's a lot at stake today!

However we feel about abortion, politicians should not interfere with a woman's ability to make her own important health care decisions in consultation with her family, her physician and her faith.?

Planned Parenthood strongly supports the Minnesota Legislature?s efforts to establish this exchange.? We also want to ensure that these health insurance exchange bills do not restrict abortion access.

If you agree that politicians and ideologies should not interfere with a woman's personal decision making, then please take a minute to tell your representative how you feel.

For a detailed rundown on what the exchange is, who would use it, how it would operate, and how much it will cost, you can read the House of Representatives? session daily, charting the Minnesota Insurance Marketplace?s long road to the House floor. Stay tuned as these bills and amendments move through the Minnesota Capitol, and be sure your representative represents you!
