     MADAM PRESIDENT:

    I offer the following resolution and move its adoption:

    A SENATE RESOLUTION urging the legislative council to establish an interim study committee to study increases in long-term health care insurance premiums.

    Whereas, Many Americans are without health insurance, and more are underinsured because of the effects of rising health care costs;

    Whereas, The costs of health insurance have risen dramatically for individuals; and

    Whereas, The lack of health care insurance interferes with a person's ability to obtain adequate health care to meet the person's needs: Therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate of the

General Assembly of the State of Indiana:

    SECTION 1. The Indiana Senate urges the legislative council to establish an interim study committee to study increases in long-term health care insurance premiums.
    SECTION 2. The Secretary of the Senate is hereby directed to transmit a copy of this Resolution to the Legislative Council through
