Maine House and Senate refuse to update study
http://knox.villagesoup.com/news/story/gop-puts-down-single-payer-study/399802

The Maine House and Senate refused along party lines this week to support an update of a study on the feasibility of a single-payer health care system.

The House voted 76-70 on May 18 to kill LD 57, which would have updated a feasibility study done in 2002. The cost would have been $60,000 and would have been paid for by a federal grant. The Senate followed suit on May 19 by a 19-16 vote.
