Bad Deed: Pete Olson Votes for Pete Olson

 

Pete Olson voted to end affordable health care for you, but not for himself – Who would have the audacity to vote for repealing affordable health care for 32 million Americans while gladly accepting generous, federally subsidized insurance for themselves?

Representative Pete Olson — along with 236 other congressional health care hypocrites.

Over the past two years, especially during the election season, Republicans and a select few Democrats did everything they could to derail health care reform. They fueled fears and misinformation, throwing around terms like “socialist,” “fascist,” “government takeover,” and of course “death panels.”

Now they’ve fulfilled their campaign promise and voted for a full repeal. But what most of them haven’t done is given up the affordable, subsidized care that they voted to deny so many of us.

Call out the health care hypocrisy by sending Rep. Olson the actual form he can submit to cancel his federal health insurance.

Regards,

Jim
