URGENT ACTION NEEDED! Stop the Senate From Sneaking Socialized
Medicine Contact your Senators NOW – the vote could come any time 4/2/2009 The Senate is voting on amendments to the Budget Bill even as we send out this message, and there is one extremely important vote later today that could help stop socialized medicine from becoming the law of the land. Sen. James DeMint (R-SC) has offered the “Healthcare Freedom Amendment, SA 853, that would prohibit the government from forcing you into “government-managed, rationed health care.” WE CANNOT LET THIS OPPORTUNITY SLIP AWAY Just yesterday, the Senate voted down an amendment from Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) that would have thrown a big roadblock in the way of any plans for government rationing through “Comparative Effectiveness Research,” or CER. That was defeated along party lines. CALL YOUR SENATORS RIGHT NOW TELL THEM TO VOTE “YES” ON THE “HEALTH CARE FREEDOM AMENDMENT, SA 853 ON THE BUDGET. The lines are extremely busy, so tell the receptionist you would like to leave a message with the staff member responsible for the budget. Tell them you support the Healthcare Freedom Amendment, SA 853, because it would strip out language that would open the door to socialized medicine. Leave your name and a phone number.
