Why would they?

  Because the manufacturers can decide to stop selling insulin in Illinois completely.

    And as I said in another comment, let them make that decision... I would love to see them attempt to justify denying life saving medication in only one part of the country because money. Might just be the straw that would finally break their backs, and it's been too long coming.

      There will be sacrificial lambs though. People will die because they can't drive out of state to get insulin. It might take a long time to force them to sell it at this cost, and they might win a lawsuit saying it's unenforceable, all while people die because of this legislation. Trust me, I don't like the companies doing this, but only passing the law setting a price ceiling without a secondary law requiring any company who was selling at the time the law was put in place to continue to sell is short sighted. Way too many situations where this ends up killing people.
