Conservatives to push views on health care at town-hall forum

KALAMAZOO — A health-care townhall meeting on Tuesday will push for citizen action on stalled state legislation that is designed to allow Michigan to sidestep expected federal health-care mandates.

U.S. Rep. Pete Hoekstra, R-Holland, who is running for governor, is expected to call for voters to pressure state lawmakers to put a constitutional amendment before state voters in November.
Hoekstra, who voted against the House version of the health-care bill, will be among panelists appearing at Western Michigan University’s Fetzer Center for the 6:30 p.m. public forum.

The event is sponsored by Southwest Michigan Tea Party Patriots and Citizens for Common Sense in Government and will be moderated by former state Rep. Jack Hoogendyk, R-Texas Township.
