On Health Care: Allow only non-profit insurers to do business in the state

Rep. Erin Murphy spoke in favor of sending the bill back to conference committee to strip out the for-profit provisions. She said legislators were unprepared to vote on changing the state's 40-year policy of allowing only non-profit insurers to do business in the state. "We really don't really know what this means," she said.

Dayton echoed that point in his written statement. "I ask the Legislature to seriously re-evaluate this provision when future health care legislation is considered," the governor said.
