- Description:
- A newspaper article discussing: The Idaho Legislature is facing a potential loss of $12.3 million in federal funding due to its refusal to pass a "certificate of need" law, which is required by the federal government for health programs. While 43 other states have already passed similar laws, Idaho's legislators, influenced by powerful hospital and medical lobbyists, have resisted the measure for years. Governor John V. Evans has expressed concern over the potential loss of federal funding, which supports health programs, highway construction, and education.
