Fallin Delays Decision on Oklahoma Insurance Exchange

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin is delaying a decision on whether the state will set up its own health insurance exchange or allow a federal model to be established in Oklahoma.
   Fallin's office announced Friday the governor decided to delay her decision after the federal government extended the deadline for states to provide notice if they plan to set up an exchange, which is an online health insurance marketplace where people can shop for coverage.
   U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius notified members of the Republican Governor's Association on Thursday that states now have until Dec. 14 to notify her office if they plan to operate a state exchange.
   Fallin last year rejected $54 million in federal grant money to establish a state exchange.Fallin Delays Decision on Oklahoma Insurance Exchange

WikiLeaks case file fight moves to federal court
May 22, 2013 21:59 GMT

By DAVID DISHNEAU Associated Press

HAGERSTOWN, Md. (AP) -- The WikiLeaks organization and a handful of journalists are asking a federal judge in Baltimore to order greater transparency in the court-martial of an Army private who has acknowledged sending reams of classified documents to the WikiLeaks website.

The Center for Constitutional Rights, representing WikiLeaks and its founder, Julian Assange, filed the lawsuit Wednesday in U.S. District Court. It seeks an order requiring timely public access to documents in the court-martial of Pfc. Bradley Manning.

Manning's 3-year-old espionage case is headed for trial next month. Many records of the pretrial proceedings remain secret because the military contends the First Amendment doesn't require it to provide prompt public access to court-martial documents.

The military's highest court rejected the transparency case in April and suggested it belonged in civilian court.
