The Associated Press reports that Idaho has taken early action to guard residents against universal healthcare:

Idaho took the lead in a growing, nationwide fight against health care overhaul Wednesday when its governor became the first to sign a measure requiring the state attorney general to sue the federal government if residents are forced to buy health insurance.

Similar legislation is pending in 37 other states.

Although some argue that such laws will be meaningless if the federal government does pass health care "reform," this is potentially the beginning of a good revival of states' rights.
