when it comes to those who support Ron Paul exercising their right to

Massachusetts only add to the lita… more

Whether you supported The Affordable Care Act (the act) or not, it has become evident that it will affect each one of us in some way. ObamaCare dictates Health Care Exchanges and they will affect patients, providers, and payers, etc.
The Heatland Event is a must to help the state make an informed decision about the exchanges!
Tuesday, February 7th @ approximately 9:30am (following session), House Chamber
Wednesday, February 8th @ 9:00am in the State Capitol, room 512A
Wednesday, February 8th @ noon @ OCPAC @ Italiano’s, 4801 N. Lincoln Boulevard
The general public is invited to any of these events!
Here is a letter from State Representative Charles Key released January 25, 2012:
CHARLES D. KEY
State Capitol Building, Room 405
2300 North Lincoln
Oklahoma City, OK 73105
Office: (405) 557-7354
January 25, 2012
Health Exchanges have become a controversial issue as they are mandated by The Affordable Care Act, aka ObamaCare. Many states have challenged their constitutionality and others have passed laws nullifying implementation of the Affordable Care Act, or parts of it, in their state.
These exchanges are the cornerstone of The Affordable Care Act and without the exchanges ObamaCare cannot be fully implemented. Understanding our options as a state are very important not only because this law is a major piece of legislation but because it will fundamentally change our way of life.
I have been working with The Heartland Institute on this subject and want to extend an invitation to you to attend one or all of three presentations to learn about Health Care Exchanges, The Affordable Care Act, and what we can do in Oklahoma to protect our citizens.
Benjamin Domenech, managing editor of Health Care News and a research fellow at The Heartland Institute, has agreed to come to the State Capitol and share his expertise on this subject. Kendal Antekier of the Heartland Institute will also be in attendance. The Heartland Institute is a 27-year-old national nonprofit research organization dedicated to finding and promoting ideas that empower people. Founded in Chicago in 1984, its mission is to discover, develop, and promote free-market solutions to social and economic problems. The Heartland Institute distributes six monthly public policy newspapers addressing the major domestic public policy issues to every national and state elected official in the U.S. plus 8,400 county and local officials and thousands of civic and business leaders. It also produces books, policy studies, and booklets. Approximately 130 academics and professional economists participate in its peer review process, and more than 200 elected officials currently serve on its Legislative Forum. A telephone survey of randomly selected state and local elected officials conducted in 2011 found 79% of state legislators and 63% of local elected officials read at least one of Heartland’s publications, and 45% of state legislators say a Heartland publication changed their mind or led to a change in public policy. Approximately 1,800 support an annual budget of $6 million. Heartland does not accept government funding.
Mr. Domenech joined The Heartland Institute in 2009 after several years working and writing on national health care policy, beginning with a political appointment as speechwriter to U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson, and continuing as chief speechwriter for U.S. Senator John Cornyn during the Medicare Part D debate on Capitol Hill. In addition to his work with Heartland, Benjamin is currently editor of The City, an academic journal of faith, politics, and culture, published by Houston Baptist University. He previously worked as a book editor for Eagle Publishing, where he edited multiple New York Times bestsellers in the arenas of politics, history, and sports. He was a founding board member of Redstate, a prominent conservative activist community site, and co-hosts Coffee & Markets, an award-winning daily podcast focused on politics, policy, and the marketplace. Educated at the College of William & Mary and University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Benjamin regularly writes opinion columns for the Washington Examiner and RealClearWorld, and in 2009 he was chosen as a Journalism Fellow by the Peter Jennings Project for Journalists and the Constitution.
For your convenience and because of demanding schedules, there will be three different events to make it possible for you to attend. Each presentation will not be the same although each will include discussion of the effect of Health Care Exchanges & Reform information. The times and locations are:
Tuesday, February 7th @ approximately 9:30am (following session), House Chamber
Wednesday, February 8th @ 9:00am in the State Capitol, room 512A
Wednesday, February 8th @ noon @ OCPAC @ Italiano’s, 4801 N. Lincoln Boulevard
The general public is invited to any of these events.
I hope you will attend.
Sincerely,
Charles Key
