Wisconsin Attorney General May File Own Suit Against Health Reform

Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen may file a new lawsuit against healthcare reform if he doesn't join the 20-state challenge led by the state of Florida, according to the Hill.

Attorney General Van Hollen isn't expected to make a decision until after Jan. 3, when the new governor takes office.


Although a federal judge has allowed the Florida suit to move forward, two other challenges have been rejected and the coverage mandate ruled constitutional.

Oral arguments for the Florida case are scheduled for Dec. 16, according to the report.
