Things To Consider!
The Senate version of health care is a spectacularly bad piece of legislation, and must be opposed for many, many reasons.
Here are just some of them:
- The government will take over 1/6 of the American economy, and put government bureaucrats between you and your family’s health care providers.
- It will cost $2.3 trillion over 10 years when fully implemented and dump a huge debt on the shoulders of our children and grandchildren (Senate Budget Committee).
- It creates more than 110 new agencies and bureaucracies in the federal government.
- It will cut $500 billion from Medicare and $170 billion from Medicare Advantage, resulting in rationed and inferior medical care for senior citizens.
- It is “the most pro-abortion single piece of legislation that has ever come to the House floor for a vote” and contains numerous “federal pro-abortion mandates and federal subsidies for abortion” (Doug Johnson, National Right to Life Committee).
- It will require taxpayer funding for abortion, and will even require purchasers of private plans to pay a monthly fee to pay for other people’s abortions.
- It contains no conscience protections for health care providers who do not want to be coerced into performing abortions.
