Send Page to a Friend Massachusetts health plan lauded   By JTA   Jewish leaders in Massachusetts praised a bill that would require all state residents to have health insurance. Gov. Mitt Romney, a possible Republican presidential contender in 2008, is expected to sign the bill, which was passed by legislators Tuesday and would become the only one of its kind in the United States. "This is a historic moment," said Nancy Kaufman, executive director of the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Boston, which played a leading role in the Greater Boston Interfaith Organization, a coalition of 70 religious organizations. "It's not perfect, but this bill comes as close as we could have hoped for as far as the principles of high-quality, affordable health care," Kaufman said.
