Larsen to GOP: Don't take young adults' health care

As House Republicans ready a repeal of last year's health care reform legislation, Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Wash., is daring its new GOP rulers to allow members to vote on retaining a popular provision.

Larsen, who survived a tough 2010 reelection race, is offering an amendment to ensure that the Republicans' repeal legislation will not eliminate health insurance coverage for young adults under 26.

Under last year's reform plan, young adults continue receiving coverage from their parents' health care plans.
