Branstad Accepts Health Reform Law Grant

Gov. Branstad opposes the federal health reform law, but he's still accepted $7-million in federal grants to prepare for the possibility that the changes will implemented. The Des Moines Register reports the funds are to be used to plan for a health-insurance exchange, an electronic system reform backers say would offer you and small businesses a way to compare and buy policies. A Branstad spokesperson says they're taking the money just in case the Supreme Court upholds the law.
