Lewis Hits Burr on Health Care
DURHAM — Democratic Senate candidate Kenneth Lewis criticized Republican Sen. Richard Burr’s position on health care legislation Thursday, saying he was part of the Washington establishment that had blocked efforts to make health care more affordable.
I’m not trying to defend Burr because his performance in the Senate leaves a lot to be desired, but Lewis is full of it. The health care bill going through the Senate and the one already passed by the House do not make health care more affordable. It will make insurance more expensive for the 85% of Americans that currently have it. Every study of these bills has stated so including the CBO so either Lewis is misinformed or he is just lying.
