Obama backtracks on health mandate, allows opt-out from start

The Hill reports:
President Obama is backing a plan that would allow states to opt out earlier from one of the new healthcare reform law’s most unpopular elements.

Speaking to nation’s governors Monday morning, Obama said states should be able to seek an earlier opt-out from the healthcare overhaul’s requirement for individuals to purchase health insurance.

Great moments in ObamaCare.
