Heath care bill will erode freedoms


On Saturday, Nov. 7th, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 3962, the Affordable Health Care for America Act, by a slim margin of 220 to 215, almost entirely along party lines, with 39 democrats voting NO and only 1 republican voting yes.

Representatives who voted for this bill need to understand what a massive power grab this is by the federal government.

It is not about healthcare, it is all about government taking over more of our economy!

Those who voted for the bill have one last opportunity to reconsider and vote NO on this bill in the upcoming final House vote — and they should do so.

A vote for this bill was a vote to further erode our freedoms and to further erode our republic.
