FREEZE SPENDING: Health Insurance for Reps and Senators

[LeftHander]

Remaining Dems should block spending for Heath insurance for members of congress and the senate.

If congress holds the pocket book then I guess a handful of Dems can block a spending bill that funds their health insurance.

It doesn't make sense to for those opposed to public healthcare to get high quality care for next to nothing on our dime.

1. Doesn't matter: They're rich enough to buy their own.

3. They get the same health insurance that EVERY federal employee gets.

You're suggesting making them ineligible for the program?

5. I agree that we should all have it (I already do).

Not a great plan, but it's a good plan and it would only entail expanding an existing program...not creating a new one from scratch.
