Missouri Republican legislators have filed a bill to put a question before voters -- whether insurance companies should be prohibited from denying coverage for pre-existing conditions. The move comes as the U.S. Supreme Court considers a case involving the Affordable Care Act. Show Less

Still pay into insurance, can't stop treatment half way through and insurance coverage is hard enough to get now as a healthy person.

Debbie Baker

It's not our fault that most of our health issues shift into different modes. And besides that they have on medical records that the issue already existed years ago. So, why try and take it from me now.

Harold Kerr II

This should not even be a question. Since it is, it shows how much of a failed state we are.

Why is healthcare different than any other product or services? Should restaurants or auto dealers cover pre-existing conditions? You go in and buy a $1 cheeseburger, but your pre-existing hunger is more than that so they should give you more food free? You can afford a cheap used car, but ...

The Constitution should be the bedrock of our democracy, not a 50.000001% out-of-state dark money, pay petition gathers and buy an election with false advertising gimmick. It should take way more signatures to get on the ballot and 75% of the vote during a presidential election for a change. FJB

Bill Clugston

It's too easy under current law.

It's a power grab. Anyone can see that.

Harry D

Grabbing power away from the out-of-state dark money liberals who can't get their simps elected to the legislature and giving power back to the people where it belongs.

Timothy Johnson
