A proposed healthcare ballot initiative in California has been named after Luigi Mangione, the man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
The “Luigi Mangione Access to Health Care Act,” which was submitted to the California Attorney General’s Office, would “make it illegal” for “anyone other than a licensed physician to deny, delay, or modify medial procedures or medications,” according to CBS8 News. The ballot initiative was submitted by Paul Eisner, a former lawyer.
Under the proposed ballot measure, patients would be allowed to “sue insurers and potentially receive attorney fees and triple damages if successful,” according to the outlet.
