Otter To Veto Anti-Health Care Bill

Two legislators in the Idaho House have confirmed that Gov. Butch Otter will pull out his veto stamp and use it on a bill that would prevent Idaho from enacting optional provisions of the 2010 federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), commonly referred to as Obamacare.
