RNC STATEMENT ON HARRY REID¹S GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE EXPERIMENT

But wait, there¹s more. At a time when our national debt just hit a record $12 trillion, Harry Reid¹s bill would cost $2.5 trillion when fully implemented. Oh, they didn¹t tell us that. It even uses accounting gimmicks to allow federal funds to be used for abortions. They didn¹t tell us that either.
This bill is far from the common-sense incremental reforms the American people want. The voters spoke loud and clear at the ballot box earlier this month they are sick and tired of all the reckless spending and big-government interference coming out of Washington , DC . Harry Reid¹s bill is exactly what the voters don¹t want, and Senate Democrats who let this bill even come up for debate will pay a price on Election Day next year.²
