RICHMOND -- Virginia's Democratic-controlled state Senate passed
measures Monday that would make it illegal to require individuals to
purchase health insurance, a direct challenge to the party's efforts in
Washington to reform health care.
The bills, a top priority of Virginia's "tea party" movement, were
approved 23 to 17 as five Democrats who represent swing areas of the
state joined all 18 Republicans in the chamber in backing the
legislation.
