1. Stop Obama's Health Care Reform 
Obama wants to pass a Health care plan to shoot OUR taxes through the roof!!! Please Sign!!!!
The headlines are reporting that CBO scored the health reform effort as costing $940 billion over the next ten years. That isn’t correct. The $940 billion figure refers only to the coverage expansions in the legislative package. There are also many other health reform initiatives–e.g., filling the “doughnut hole” in Medicare’s prescription drug benefit and increasing funding for community health centers and prevention efforts–in the legislation. Add it all up and the ten-year cost of health reform is about $1,072 billion.
For the past year the Congress of the United States of America has argued over a reform of the American health care system. In these arguments, two separate bills were passed; one in the House of Representatives and one in the Senate.
These bills are separate and have many features that are distinct from each other and therefore need to "changed" so that they can become one unified bill to be passed again through both the House and the Senate. The House is currently going to consider the Senate bill in its original form.
At present the House is looking for ways that undermine our Constitution and will try to "pass" this bill without actually voting on it.
