WASHINGTON, D.C. – Montana’s Congressman, Denny Rehberg, today released the following statement following the introduction of H.R. 3962, Speaker Pelosi’s new Health Care Bill. The 1,990-page bill was introduced this morning, and Rehberg posted it on his website, inviting Montanans to join him in reading it.

"At my sixteen town hall meetings this August, thousands of Montanans voiced their opinions about health care reform. Time and time again, I heard from Montanans that they stand with me in opposition to a government-run public option and government-forced insurance. While there is a need for health care reform that will increase access and affordability of coverage to those who want it, Montanans have the right to be heard, not only on what’s in the bill, but also what’s missing. This morning, House Democrats unveiled a brand new $900 billion health-care plan that’s almost 1,000 pages longer than the last one. In the coming days, I look forward to invaluable input from Montanans on this 2,000-page bill."

Rehberg’s health care transparency website, and his pledge not to vote for any bill he hasn’t read can be found here.

I found it interesting that no other reps reported any of their constituents being concerned about mandatory (anything) and the increase in spending. (I know that the spending has been a topic just from the comments in many of the papers I've read!)

Did you see Baucus claiming respect for the returning troops and how they preserve our freedom? (freedom to be mandated by him)
