If your conference wants to deny millions of Americans affordable health care, your members should walk that walk. … You cannot enroll in the very kind of coverage that you want for yourselves, and then turn around and deny it to Americans who don’t happen to be Members of Congress.
Rep. Joe Crowley, D—NY, in a letter to Republican leadership that asks incoming conservatives to forego the healthcare coverage they are set to receive as members of Congress. (submitted by andrewgraham)
Boy, the peeps in New York’s District 7 got a real winner there. Has Joe actually read the bill?
Let’s help Joe. First, ObamaCare as passed into law, puts both Members of Congress and Americans in the same boat.
Next, Democrats wanted themselves to be exempted from ObamaCare. They didn’t realize that ObamaCare didn’t exempt them until it was too late. As Pelosi said - “We must pass the bill to find out what’s in it.”
Now, Joe Crowley, being the outstanding Representative of New York District 7 that he is, doesn’t want you to know this:
His AYE vote on ObamaCare, has denied millions of Americans health insurance.
Would the wonderfully informed Rep. Crowley please explain how ObamaCare is affordable healthcare when premiums will increase? In fact, AARP just announced premiums for their members will increase from 8% to 13% next year alone, due to ObamaCare.
Would the gentleman from NY - District 7, Rep Crowley also please explain why the Obama Administration handed out to 111 companies, totalling over 1 million people, waivers on ObamaCare? I mean Joe, come on, you DID vote for affordable health care did you not?
Note to the GOP Freshmen: Rep. Joe has just given you a gift. Please write many letters to him. No need to ask any senior members of Congress if you can do this. You can. It’s America.
Note to the people of NY District 7 - Good luck with Joe.
