First, the proposal to expand health care benefits beyond marriage is a violation of the Virginia Constitution.
Second, such an expansion of benefits would have to increase the cost of health insurance for the state, which in turn means it would cost the taxpayers.
I ask that you not expand health care benefits under these circumstances.
