Fwd: Responding to your message

Dear Mr. Hames,

 

Thank you for contacting me to express support for defunding the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare). I appreciate you sharing your views, which help inform and guide me in Congress.

              

I share your support for getting rid of this deeply flawed law. I voted in favor of H.J.Res. 59, the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, when it passed the House on September 20, 2013, by a vote of 230 to 189. This legislation would fund the government through December 15, 2013, while fully defunding ObamaCare. The Senate, unfortunately, stripped out the language defunding ObamaCare before it passed a "clean" continuing resolution on September 27, 2013. 

 

You may also be interested to know I am a cosponsor of H.J. Res. 62, another Continuing Resolution introduced by Rep. Tom Graves (GA) that includes full defunding of ObamaCare. In addition, I signed a letter to House Republican leadership, circulated by Rep. Mark Meadows (NC) in August, asking that ObamaCare be defunded in any relevant appropriations bill that moves through the House in this Congress.  

 

Ultimately, I believe ObamaCare needs to be fully repealed which is why I was proud to cosponsor and vote for H.R. 45—a full repeal of Obamacare—which passed the House on May 16, 2013 by a vote of 229 to 195. As Obamacare causes more damage to our health care system and our economy, I am hopeful that the Senate will take this new opportunity to repeal this law and replace it with patient-centered reforms.

                

As a physician with more than 30 years of experience, taking care of patients has been my life's work. Please rest assured that reforming our health care system will be my top priority as long as I have the privilege to serve you in Congress. 


 

If there is anything I can do to be of assistance, or if you would like to receive my e-newsletter, please visit www.roe.house.gov. Again, I thank you for your opinions and look forward to serving you. Please do not hesitate to contact my office in the future.

 

 

Sincerely,

David P. Roe
Member of Congress

Superbowl anti-gun ad, hope it backfires on them

PAT DOLLARD YOUNG AMERICANS 11 Hours Ago Bloomberg to Air Gun Control Ad During Superbowl Feb 2, 2013Toro520 Via The Associated Press: NEW YORK (Associated Press) – A gun control group founded by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is airing a Super Bowl advertisement calling for background checks. The 30-second spot by Mayors Against Illegal Guns will air in the Washington area during the game between the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers. The ad calls on lawmakers to pass rules requiring background checks on guns. It is narrated by children, with “America the Beautiful” playing in the background. It includes decades-old footage of National Rifle Association Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre saying the gun lobby group approves of the checks. LaPierre recently testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee that the NRA no longer supports background checks for all gun sales. A Bloomsberg spokesman would say only that the ad cost in the six-figure range....
