Show Us The Healthcare Bill!

(Analyst's note:  You can absolutely bet these "representatives" are going to -- in due time -- feel the VOTING power of the American people because of such actions as described below.)

The Senate Finance Committee will vote TUESDAY and will likely pass its version of ObamaCare complete with the abortion mandate, massive tax increases and the wholesale government takeover of healthcare.

Just one problem...

There is NO real bill in the Finance Committee!

The Finance Committee is working off what is called the "Chairman's Mark," which is really just "plain language" notes about the bill!


Committee staffers admit that the actual legislative text for the bill hasn't been written (or at least it hasn't been released to the public!).

Even worse...

Majority Leader Harry Reid ultimately controls the process in the Senate and our best sources tell us he will push his own version of ObamaCare directly to the floor for a vote! Once again, we have no idea what that bill actually says. There have been no drafts and it will not be subjected to Committee scrutiny!

It is very likely that the actual text of the Reid bill -- the final bill the Senate votes on -- will remain hidden until the very last minute. Why? It's clear that he doesn't want the  American people to know what is in this healthcare bill!

+ + Tell the Senate: "Show Us The Bill!"

This is political chicanery at its very worst. Harry Reid knows the American public is not in favor of ObamaCare and its abortion mandate, so he is resorting to HIDING the bill's content and his plans from citizens like you and me!


And as we learned from his "attach it to an unrelated bill and call the vote at midnight" strategy to pass Hate Crimes legislation, Reid will stop at nothing to please the White House and pass this dangerous, cost-prohibitive bill no matter what Americans think!

I'm asking you to take a stand with me and demand that the Senate SHOW US THE BILL before any further votes on ObamaCare are taken!

There are two important ways to take action.

FIRST, fax your Senators and other key Senators and say, "Show Us The Bill!" Go here to schedule your faxes:

Of course, if you prefer to send your own faxes, please go here for fax numbers and sample texts for your faxes:

http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?U=22164&CID=297&RID=20981194

SECOND, call your two Senators and tell them that they should not vote on ANY health reform bill until they and the American public have had reasonable time to review the ACTUAL LEGISLATIVE TEXT. ....


Again, we simply MUST see the actual bill, especially when every draft has included provisions that could greatly expand abortion coverage and force you and me to pay for abortions!


Thank you for telling your senators, "Show Us The Bill!"

God bless you,
