Some of you may have already seen this. Congress is getting ready to pass the largest domestic program since the Great Scociety and most members have-not even seen the bill which was not even written until last night (the bills reported out of committee where between 350390 pages the final result is 692 pages and was not posted on the Internet until 6 a.m. today).For Immediate Release: June 26, 2003692-Page Medicare Bill Just Developed and Congress Has Just Hours Before Voting: Will Your Congressman's Vote Be Truly Informed?(Washington, D.C.)--Congress is getting ready to vote on a 692-page Medicare bill (H.R.1) that was posted online less than 24 hours ago. "But feew members are going to know what they are voting for or against," says Sue Blevins, president of the Institute for Health Freedom. She urges citizens to urgently ask their national policymakers:* Have your (elected officials) read the newly developed 692-page Medicare bill in its entirety?* Will you (elected officials) study the 692-page Medicare bill before voting on it?* How will the bill ensure the new prescription drug benefit will be truly voluntary, as is being touted?* Does the bill increase the eligibility age at which workers may recoup their Medicare benefits (thus equating a tax increase)?* What is the final price tag for the pending Medicare bill?* How much will the Medicare bill cost future taxpayers as a percentage of their earnings?"Without asking these questions, Congress is making uninformed national policy decisions that affect our very personal lives," Blevins said. "That's why it's critical for citizens to voice their own opinions on this very important issue."The 692-page Medicare bill can be accessed online at: http://www.house.gov/rules/HR1_002.PDF *****************************************************************************For information about the Institute for Health Freedom (IHF) and Medicare reform, visit IHF's Web site at http://www.forhealthfreedom.org/ You can't talk back to the Office of Homeland Security — Chris Harris, Fri Jun 27 04:51 Terrorism panic goes too far at Area 51 — George Knapp, Fri Jun 27 16:07 Total Surveillance Nightmare: — Rob Edwards, Fri Jun 27 20:03
