Learn about contents of health care reform bill
Aug. 18, 2009 12:44 am
Legislative proponents of health care reform would say most Americans would support the 1,100 page bill, H. R. 3200. “It's what the American people want.” If that is the case, what's the hurry? The more people know about the bill, the more they will be in support of it, right?
Get the contents out to the public; That will work to drown out the naysayers, that group of Americans who “stand in the way of needed health care reform.”
But why are congressional proponents of HR 3200 running around the country trying to defend what they tried to rush through?
The reason: because Americans are finding out what is in H. R. 3200.
