From KansasCity.com:
As changes imposed by federal health care reform begin to take effect, states are joining together in a federal lawsuit to try to halt implementation.
If Kansas Gov.-elect Sam Brownback and Attorney General-elect Derek Schmidt have their way, Kansas will soon be among them.
Brownback and Schmidt campaigned on their promise to join the litigation and call for repeal of the health care law. But the effects of such a lawsuit could be minimal and take a while to materialize in Kansas.
Schmidt’s office did not return phone calls asking for specifics on his intentions.
Sherriene Jones-Sontag, a spokeswoman for Brownback, said the governor-elect would support whatever legal action Schmidt takes.
