printVia Campaign for Liberty:
Today, twenty-five Senate Republicans voted to allow Harry Reid to fund ObamaCare despite daily reports of the law’s destruction to the nation’s health care system and overall economy.
Campaign for Liberty favors health care reform which reduces cost through increased competition and reduced regulation, exactly the opposite of ObamaCare.
“By voting for cloture, Senate Republicans allowed Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to fully fund and inflict ObamaCare on the nation,” said Campaign for Liberty President John Tate.
“The American people are sick and tired of Republicans refusing to stand up for the millions of Americans facing higher premiums and fewer options next year due to ObamaCare. I wish to thank Senators Cruz, Lee, Paul, and others for leading the fight against top-down health care.
“Campaign for Liberty will be sure to remind our members which Senators stood with the American people against ObamaCare, and which ones stood with Harry Reid and President Obama.”
Via (CNSNews.com) – “Twenty-five Republican senators—led by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) and Sen. John McCain (Ariz.)–voted today in favor of invoking cloture on the House-passed continuing resolution to fund the government past Monday, thus putting Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D.-Nev.) in a position where he could strip the bill of its provisions defunding Obamacare with a simple party-line majority instead of the 60 votes needed on cloture.”
