The Arizona senate approved a ballot initiative that would allow voters to send a strong message to Washington about the type of health plan they have. The Health Care Freedom Act would guarantee Arizona residents the right to decide whether to participate in any health plan. This would allow residents the right to decline to participate in all insurance plans.
