Indiana joins legal challenge to health care overhaul
Indiana is joining 13 other states in challenging the nation's nearly $1 trillion health care overhaul -- a lawsuit the state's attorney general insisted Monday arose not from politics but a need to answer serious constitutional questions. Attorney General Greg Zoeller said Indiana will join an amended version of the lawsuit expected to be filed soon in a federal court in Florida, becoming the 14th plaintiff. President Barack Obama signed the 10-year $938 billion health care bill into law following a bitter partisan battle in Congress. Photograph of Greg Zoeller accompanies the article
