Kansas AG Declines Health Care Act Lawsuit
Kansas Attorney General Steve Six says pursuit of a challenge to the federal health care act is unwise and unlikely to succeed. He cites legal, political, and financial factors, noting the issue is political not constitutional and that other states have filed suit at no cost to Kansas taxpayers. The Kansas House may still urge him to act.
