The Senate passed three measures last week opposing the national health insurance plan. This included an amendment that will prohibit participation in forcing residents of Oklahoma to buy individual health insurance. The amendment is a response to plans of President Barack Obama and Congress in reforming the United States health insurance system.

The amendment passed the Senate 30-16. It included five Democrats backing the Republican proposal. Oklahoma health insurance advocates are sending a message to the white house that they don’t agree with Obama Care.

Oklahoma health insurance advocates are making progress towards legislation that will protect residents in the state. The protection is needed in case health care reform passes. If the bill does pass, residents will be forced to buy Oklahoma health insurance. The proposed legislation will not allow this mandate to take effect in Oklahoma. Residents would be exempt from the mandate.

In addition, thirty six other states have also introduced similar legislation. All the bills have the same goal, to exempt Americans from loss of freedom and choice. Residents will have freedom and will not be forced to buy health coverage under Obama Care.

American Trade Association, Smart Data Solutions, Real Benefits Association, Serve America Assurance have all been served with a cease and desist order from Kansas health insurance commissioner Sandy Praeger.

This order has been issued because of deceptive advertising and the sales of unauthorized Kansas health insurance. The companies are based out of Tennessee and have been served a cease and desist order from several states.

Consumer complaints allowed the commissioner to take action and recognize who was the cause of the problem. Employees weren’t even licensed in the state. Every person who sells Kansas health insurance must go through the correct licensing procedures and be approved by the state before making any sales or presentations.

States that have filed cease and desist orders against the companies are North Carolina, Missouri, Oklahoma, Connecticut, and Michigan.
