What a morning it has been in the House! The Representatives
on both sides stood up and spoke out today against the healthcare law. It is a
great day! It has been before the House
47 times; 47 times it took for them to vote to stop Obamacare while funding the
government to prevent a shutdown. The vote was 230-189. The House of
Representatives made a big leap today having listened to the people of America!!
It is now time for the bill to go before Senate and for it to be voted on.
Each day new regulations come to light in the healthcare
world making it harder and harder on practices who are trying to make a difference
in the lives of their patients. It’s hard trying to save the world when you
have to debate an insurance company over the phone on why a patient needs
diagnostic testing; we should not have to explain why a patient needs a stress
test if he has a history of heart concerns and heart palpation's. I see people
hurt by this law already, and it is frustrating.
Along with Cleveland Clinic and UPS this week Home Depot
came out saying that because of health care cost they would be dropping their
full time employees to part time so that they would not have to pay into the
horrible health care cost. At my own job this week I found out that my
insurance is going to increase more than 20 dollars for just me. That is more than
40 plus dollars a month, and I’m a current health care working. This health
care is not creating jobs Mr. President. It is as Rep Eric Cantor said “Obamacare
is turning America from a full-time to a part-time America.” Here is a list of
other company's that are cutting hours do to high healthcare cost and insurance changes.
I ask you to pray and encourage our leaders in the senate to
vote on what is best for the people of America.
Listening to the people of America should not be a limited exercise. We need the leaders in the senate to bring this to the senate floor and have this healthcare debate.
Hears to hoping Senate follows the House in listening to the
people of America.
Sunshine Girl in Red.
For the Record the government shutdown is a political
game that no one has time to play!
