On Wednesday Feb. 15, the Indiana Senate panel approved House Bill 1269, and sent it to the full Senate for a vote. The bill gives Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels the authority to pull Indiana and all of its senior citizens out of Medicare. Indiana could also withdraw from Medicaid and many other federal health programs that primarily help the poor, including the Affordable Care Act.

Is AARP aware of this bill?  What can be done about this?

 It  requires the securing of  consent from the United States Congress.  Could pass the House but not the Senate - This is just a power play by some states to hold some control.  I wouldn't worry about it.
