Washington, D.C. - “I am extremely disappointed by the health care reform bills that passed the House tonight. The American people wanted reform that lowers premiums and makes health care more affordable. They got a bill that will actually increase their premiums, increase their taxes, and increase the national debt. They deserve better.
“Over the last nine months, we have had the opportunity to listen to the American people who overwhelmingly disapprove of this bill. Tonight, Democrats had the opportunity to show they were listening to the American people. They missed that opportunity.
“I would like to thank the thousands of my constituents who have made certain their voices were heard on this issue. I am heartened by the involvement of citizens in our efforts to defeat the Democrats health care bill.”
