Boehner: 'Ohioans Aren't Buying Washington Dems' Gov't Takeover of Health Care'
Contact: Cory Fritz, 202-225-6205
WASHINGTON, March 15 /Standard Newswire/ -- Congressman John Boehner (R-West Chester) issued the following statement regarding the visits by President Obama and Vice President Biden to Ohio today:
"Again the President and Vice President have come to the Buckeye State to try and sell their massive job-killing government takeover of health care, but Ohioans aren't buying it. Instead, as we approach nearly a year of double-digit unemployment in Ohio, hard-working families are wondering why Washington Democrats refuse to abandon their government takeover of health care, their 'cap and trade' national energy tax, and all their government spending that will only make matters worse.
"This week members of Congress will be asked to pass the Senate health care bill with its job-killing tax hikes, its 'Corn Husker Kickback,' its 'Louisiana Purchase,' and its taxpayer funding for abortions. Ohioans don't want it. The American people oppose it. Ohio's undecided Democrats have a decision to make. Are they going to stand with President Obama and his fellow Washington Democrats, or are they going to stand with their constituents?'
"It is not too late to scrap this job-killing monstrosity and start over with a step-by-step approach focused on lowering costs for families and small businesses. Republicans have offered a plan to lower premiums by up to 10 percent, which is exactly what the American people want."
NOTE: According to a recent Quinnipiac poll, 56 percent of Ohioans oppose Washington Democrats' government takeover of health care.
Boehner represents Ohio's 8th Congressional District, which includes all of Darke, Miami, and Preble counties, most of Butler and Mercer counties, and the northeastern corner of Montgomery County. He was first elected to Congress in 1990.
