Government Takeover of Health Care Passes U.S. House, Keep Pressure on U.S. Senate. By the razor thin margin of 220 to 215 votes, the U.S.
House recently approved health care legislation (H.R. 3962) that includes an
employer “pay or play” mandate and a public option. This legislation has been
described by The Wall Street Journal as “The
Worst Bill Ever,” and is estimated to cost at least $1.2 trillion. Job
providers have as large of a stake in the health care debate as anyone – and
must remain active and vocal as this bill moves to the U.S. Senate for
consideration. Please contact Senators Carl Levin and Debbie Stabenow to voice
your concerns today and urge them to vote “no” on HR 3962.
