The Ballot Steering Committee has reviewed polling results, met with stakeholders and agreed upon the following language that will appear on the ballot in November 2008:
The State Legislature shall pass laws to make sure that every Michigan resident has affordable and comprehensive health care coverage through a fair and cost effective financing system. The legislature is required to pass a plan that, through public or private measures, controls health care costs and provides for medically necessary preventive, primary, acute and chronic health care needs.
Polling results are very positive with close to 2/3 of voters supporting the proposal. Still, it will take a concerted effort from lots of folks and organizations to ensure we're successful.
