Had the referral been approved in the Legislature, the proposal would have gone to voters in the November general election. In the House, all 35 Dem- ocrats voted for the measure, while the 25 Republicans opposed it. State Rep. Mitch Green- lick, D-Portland, who has repeatedly sponsored the mea- sure, said this is the third con- secutive time the Senate has blocked the referral. In light of federal efforts to overturn the Affordable Care Act, Greenlick said it is important for Oregon voters to weigh in on whether they want health care to be acces- sible to everyone. “I think we are mak- ing a terrible mistake not to Sunday, March 4 BURNETT, Debra Kay (Grover) — Celebration of life at 2 p.m., Astoria Armory, 1636 Exchange St. Ontario 20/42 Bend 25/43 Pamplin Media Group State Rep.

Despite proposed word- ing changes, there were still concerns about individuals suing the state, said state Sen. Laurie Monnes Anderson, D-Gresham, chairwoman of the Senate Health Committee. “We were just down to the wire. Trying to come to an agreement on language changes was just really tough,” she said. The measure, called House Joint Referral 203, passed the House along party lines this month. Monnes Anderson announced Monday that her committee would not hold a vote on the referral. Even though the committee had enough votes to send the mea- sure to the Senate floor, there are not enough votes to pass the bill in the larger body, she said. “The bill would have needed extensive amend- ments for it to get the sup- port it needs in the Senate, and given this late timing in the session, the committee chair give them the opportunity to tell us whether they really believe that universal access to health care is something that our citizens deserve and that we should take seriously as we consider how we move forward in dealing with the health care system,” he said. Using a catchphrase from the 1984 science fiction film, “The Terminator,” Greenlick said: “I will be back.” The practical impact of cre- ating such a right was unclear. House Speaker Tina Kotek and Majority Leader Jennifer Williamson, both Democrats from Portland, described the measure primarily as “aspi- rational,” but some legal experts said adding the right to the Constitution could spur litigation. “I think we all agree that health care should be an inalienable right for everyone. I’m concerned that you send it to the voters and the voters say ‘yes’ and it comes back, at what expense do we pay for it?” said Sen. Alan DeBoer, R-Ashland, a member of the Senate Health Care Commit- tee. “We need the federal gov- ernment to come to the table. I have always been a supporter of single payer … but how do you pay for it once you approve it and the lawsuits?” The Capital Bureau is a collaboration between EO Media Group and Pamplin Media Group.
