I came here to fight big-government monstrosities like this bill that dim the light of freedom and diminish opportunity for future generations. Americans want a common-sense approach to health care reform, not Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s 2,032-page government takeover that increases costs, adds to our skyrocketing debt, destroys jobs with tax hikes and new mandates, and cuts seniors’ Medicare benefits. Americans asking ‘where are the jobs’ are getting more of the same from out-of-touch Washington Democrats: more spending, more debt, and more government." http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153986 http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153986 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153389 http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153389 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT At his weekly press briefing today, House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) discussed the Republicans’ plan to lower health care costs for American families and small businesses and increase access to quality care at a price our nation can afford.

That is a feat one shoe store owner in Campbellsville, KY initially reported accomplishing as part of the federal government’s “double and even triple-checked” trillion-dollar ‘stimulus’ data. Turns out he made nine pairs of boots for members of the Army Corps of Engineers. http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=152936 http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=152936 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT The U.S. economy has lost more than three million private sector jobs since the trillion-dollar ‘stimulus’ became law, according to the newest ADP National Employment Report . Most of these job losses have come from small businesses, which have historically represented the nation’s most significant source of job creation. In spite of all that, out-of-touch Washington Democrats are moving forward with Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) plan to fund her 2,032-page government takeover of health care on the backs of those very businesses. A new analysis by the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) has determined that the surtax imposed by Speaker Pelosi’s health care bill would raise taxes on small businesses by at least $150 billion. http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153029 http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153029 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153055 http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153055 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) issued the following statement after the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) confirmed in a letter tonight that the Republican health care plan will lower health care premiums by up to 10 percent and reduce the deficit by $68 billion over 10 years without imposing tax increases on families and small businesses http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153130 http://republicanleader.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=153130 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 05:00:00 GMT WASHINGTON, D.C. – House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) today delivered remarks on the House floor outlining how Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) 1,990-page costly government takeover of health care – with a price tag of $1.3 trillion and counting – will increase premiums, raise taxes, and cut Medicare benefits for seniors.
