Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney signed into law the health care bill previously reported on here. You can access a press release here and Governor Romney’s comments here. He did veto some items in the bill, one of which calls for employers with 11 or more workers to provide health coverage or pay an annual fee of $295 per worker. The Boston Globe reports that “[t]he vetoes promise to be more symbolic than meaningful, because the House and Senate passed the bill overwhelmingly and are expected to override all the vetoes.”
