I don't understand this. Maybe I'm uneducated on "acts"? > It is the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation that would establish a comprehensive universal single-payer health care coverage program and a health care cost control system for the benefit of all residents of the state. This is literally the meat of the bill. The actual changes would still have to be voted on in separate bills, right? What is the point of this?
