Senator Theis’ statement is as follows: This is a very simple but important amendment and I ask for your support. My amendment would simply require that no health care services or treatment provided to a minor be covered by taxpayer-funded insurance without parental or guardian consent, particularly in settings where parents and guardians aren’t ordinarily with their children, such as schools.
