Zellers: We Will Uphold The Governor's Veto

ST. PAUL -- House Republican Minority Leader Kurt Zellers (Maple Grove) this evening commented on Governor Pawlenty's veto of Senate File 2168 dealing with General Assistance Medical Care.

"Governor Pawlenty wants to push for more reforms to the state's health care programs, and our caucus will support that effort. We will uphold the Governor's veto.

"Representatives Matt Dean and Steve Gottwalt offered real reform ideas during today's floor debate and we will bring those ideas back to the table as we try to achieve a solution. This is difficult work. We'll roll up our sleeves and get back at it."
