    Team DeMint Website; My email ^ | January 16, 2012 | Jim DeMint

    Read the Bill: Senate Version of ObamaCare Now Online Late Wednesday night, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) released his own version of a health care bill that if passed will raise taxes, increase premiums, cut Medicare and lead to health care rationing. It's imperative that freedom-loving Americans everywhere raise their voices in opposition to this bill. It truly represents a government takeover of health care. To be better informed for the battle ahead, read the entire bill (or at least skim over its 2,074 pages) here.

See link for complete story.
