TakeAction Minnesota Statement on Senate HHS Health Insurance Presentation
St. Paul, MN—Today, the Minnesota Senate held a presentation on Minnesota’s individual health insurance market and discussed the MinnesotaCare Buy-In proposal. TakeAction Minnesota released the following statement:
“Today’s presentation was a transparent lobbying pitch from one insurance company against the MinnesotaCare Buy-In,” said Kenza Hadj-Moussa, a spokesperson for TakeAction Minnesota. “We need lawmakers to evaluate MinnesotaCare from the point of view of Minnesotans, not the insurance industry. Minnesotans want simple, universal, affordable health care. The pathway is through public health insurance, not the failing private market that exists to enrich itself.”
