Missourians have spoken out against a federal takeover of healthcare, and this week, House Republicans joined them in their fight. We want to send a very clear message to Congress:
We do not support a federal mandate on healthcare and we are urging the Missouri Congressional Delegation to vote against a bill that would take away our liberties as American citizen. Democrats in Congress are bargaining behind closed doors in order to gain votes on this legislation. If the federal healthcare bill is as great as Obama, Pelosi and Reid are telling us, why are secret deals needed to secure votes? Democrats in Washington intend to pay for their healthcare experiment by shifting massive costs to each state. We can't – in every sense of the word – AFFORD an experiment. Democrats claim that their health care bill would not add to the skyrocketing deficit, but they are not being straightforward about the costs. Washington liberals want to shift the costs to states like Missouri—forcing us to pay $450 million every year. ($450 million figure according to State of Missouri estimates).
Missouri Republicans take healthcare very seriously, and we have proven that through HCR18. We join you, the people, in standing against the federal government on this issue.
