Oklahoma: Do or Die for Obamacare Nullification Bill

Oklahoma House Bill 1021 – to nullify Obamacare – has passed the state house by a wide margin and is in senate. Senator Griffin has moved the bill out of the Rules Committee and on to the Appropriations Committee.

The ONLY CHANCE to move HB1021 to the Senate floor appears to be in committee on April 3rd.  Please make calls immediately to push the bill forward!

Sen. Griffin had earlier expressed her disapproval of this bill – but she received hundreds of calls, emails and visits in support.  She has since worked with Senator Dahm to ensure the bill complies with Senate rules and has not even bothered to bring it up in the Senate Rules Committee. Instead, Senator Griffin has simply sent it along its way to the next step; the Appropriations Committee. Don’t forget, major national forces are against this bill – but your grassroots pressure is working!

 BACKGROUND ARTICLES AND INFORMATION ON NULLIFICATION AND “OBAMACARE.”

Just as the U.S. Supreme Court can offer their opinion and declare a law unconstitutional, the states can essentially do the same thing through a process commonly called “Nullification.” There is a reason that supreme court cases end up with the justices issuing an “opinion.”
