Last week, the Senate health committee voted 12-11 in favor of a
two-page amendment courtesy of Republican Tom Coburn that would require
all Members and their staffs to enroll in any new government-run health
plan
Congressman John Fleming ( a Louisiana physician) has proposed an
amendment in the House that would require congressmen and senators to
take the same healthcare plan they force on us (under proposed
legislation they are curiously exempt).
Congressman Fleming is encouraging people to go on his Website and sign
his petition (very simple - just first, last and email). I have
immediately done just that at: www.fleming.house.gov/index.html
<http://www.fleming.house.gov/index.html>
If it's good enough for the people then Congressmen should have to
accept the same level of health care for themselves and their families.
