Federal legislation is providing $10 billion to school districts nationwide to rehire j U.S. Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah). has announced that he is signing onto a friend-ofthe-court brief supporting Utah's side of a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the new federal health insurance law. The brief is being led by Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (RKentucky). "The $2.6 trillion health law is an astonishing expansion of federal power and busts the limits that the Constitution imposes on the federal government," said Hatch. "I believe the courts will respond favorably to the kind of sound constitutional arguments presented by Utah as a party to this lawsuit and in our friend of the court brief. If the federal government can tell Americans what goods or services they must buy with their own money, the federal government has no limits any- more and our liberty is in jeopardy.'1 The brief argues that forcing Americans to purchase a government-approved level of health of health insurance "dramatically oversteps the bounds of the Commerce Clause which has always been understood as a power to regulate, and not to compel, economic activity." "Congress must obey the Constitution rather than make it up as we go along," said Hatch. "Liberty requires limits on government, and those limits do not allow Congress to dictate economic decisions rather than regulate economic activities." Utah is one of the original plaintiffs in this lawsuit, now brought by a total of 20 states, the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB): and individual citizens. U.S. District Judge The islands of Samoa have some of the highest rates of rheumatic heart disease in the world. Often, patients as young as 15 must have heart surgery. The only way to prevent rheumatic heart disease from developing is to screen young patients and educate them and their parents on what to do should the symptoms arise. A group of UVU students will do just that in Samoa next summer. Led by a team of Lori Allen, who holds a doctorate in health promotion and education, her husband Dr. Marv Allen, and UVU Associate Professor of Nursing Troy Nelson, UVU students will teach elementary children in local schools about strep throat and rheumatic fever, while interacting with healthcare workers and experiencing clinical observations in local hospitals and clinics. "The Samoa Study Abroad program is a great opportunity for our students to actually make a difference in people's lives, while earning UVU credit," said Troy Nelson, Samoa Program Director. "Students will get hands-on clinical experience while educating parents and children about an easily diagnosable, easily curable disease."

Hatch was the first member of Congress publicly to argue that the Constitution does not authorize Congress to require that individuals purchase health insurance or face a financial penalty. In December 2009, he voted for two points of order that the new law is unconstitutional. In June 2010, Hatch introduced the American Liberty Restoration Act (S.3502) which would repeal the unconstitutional individual insurance mandate being challenged in this lawsuit. Fifteen Senators have so far co-sponsored the bill, which is endorsed by groups such as NFIB and the National Retail Federation.
