My Medical Records Are Mine

It is only the extreme patience of silent conservatives that we call statements such as "My Medical Records Are Mine" as common sense. To say otherwise is truthfully to say that A is not A. To say otherwise is truthfully to bring treason to reason. That is precisely why neither the Minnesota Legislator, nor the Minnesota Department of Health will hold a debate, because their position is wholly untenable.

The Genetic Privacy Law has been ignored for years, and this new legislation, the Omnibus Health Care Bill will gut it permanently. According to the arbitrary State, new born baby’s DNA is not their parents, but the State’s.

Legislators are supposed to represent the people. Now, when legislators take our newborn’s DNA, and they take our medical records, we have to ask ourselves. Do they represent us, or do they represent government? Being on this issue with the fantastic Twila Brase, I am convinced that this is going to our goal keeper, Governor Pawlenty.

If you have a minute more, help make sure he stops this slap shot by giving him a simple phone call. Tell Governor Pawlenty to use the local media to address the public why he would absolutely veto any legislation that takes medical information from the people to the state. Tell him to veto Baby DNA legislation, and medical record theft legislation.
