McIntyre Comes Out Against HR 3200
LUMBERTON — As the battle over health care reform rages across the country, U.S. Rep. Mike McIntyre is standing firmly against the Obama administration-backed plan.
“Although health care reform is needed, this bill, H.R. 3200, is not the way to do it,” McIntyre, whose 7th Congressional District encompasses much of Southeastern North Carolina, told The Robesonian last week. “It costs too much and is being done too fast and too soon.”
The bill, known as “America’s Affordable Health Choices Act,” is far from the solution to the nation’s health care woes, contends McIntyre and other opponents of the more than 1,000-page document. It is a plan, the congressman insists, that cannot successfully address health care problems.
“I am concerned that this proposal, which is currently the leading proposal in the health care debate, will not solve the problem. I’m concerned that it will actually exacerbate the problem.”
Well Congressman, well over half of the country shares your concerns about this bill and we’re glad to hear you are listening to the American people rather than the moonbat fringe of your party.
