Missouri Attorney General, Chris Koster, a Democrat, is siding against the President’s proposed health care reform package. Koster filed an amicus brief Monday in a multi state lawsuit supporting the 26 Republican state attorneys general and governors who filed it. The lawsuit challenges a provision of the Obama’s law that requires individuals to pay a $695 yearly penalty if they do not purchase health insurance. Koster switched from the GOP to the Democratic Party in 2007 when he was a state senator and was elected attorney general in 2008.
