Health Care Vote Set
The “secret deal” Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) has worked on for weeks was just released Saturday morning, December 19th.
Weekend Action Absolutely Necessary!
The CLOTURE VOTE on the motion to end debate IS SET FOR
1 a.m. very late Sunday (12-20-09) night/very early Monday morning.
So, weekend calls are imperative!
If you wait until Monday morning when the sun rises, it will be too late!
Senator Nelson, reportedly, caved in and accepted watered down language on abortion-funding to give Reid the 60th vote needed to bring the health care fiasco closer to passage.
The bill continues to …
>Cost almost $1 trillion $871 billion, the CBO’s modest estimate that does not factor in the full ten years after it goes into effect,
>Cut Medicare by hundreds of billions of dollars,
>Raise and impose a vast array of new taxes on the American people,
>Allow for federal funding of abortion,
>Retain the CLASS Act (which the Democrat Chairman of the Budget Committee describes as nothing more than a “Ponzi Scheme”),
>Massively expand Medicaid, giving special treatment to a select few states so taxpayers in VA, AR, and OH will have to pay higher taxes to subsidize the Medicaid program of a favored few, such as NE, MA, and VT.
This cloture vote is the only vote that counts now. If they get 60 cloture votes, the bill will be a shoo-in to get the simple majority needed for final passage. There will be no conference committee. If this bill passes the Senate, Reid will take it to Nancy Pelosi and tell her to have the House vote on it now and do not allow any amendments. No one will have time to read it and no one will know what’s in it before they vote. If this goes as Reid and Pelosi plan, the health care bill will be on the president’s desk before the New Year.
