Letter on Health Care - Vote NO HR 3590 Senate Health Care Bill
Dear Representative Markey,
I am a citizen of the 4th Congressional District and I urge you to vote NO on the health care bill that is currently being considered (Senate version). As you know, there are strong opinions on both sides regarding healthcare reform. The real answer to reforming the health care system and lowering costs is to allow the free market to work. This can be done by removing state mandates and allowing insurance companies to compete across state lines. These measures could be implemented immediately and WITHOUT SPENDING ONE DIME.
I appreciate your NO vote when the House of Representatives was writing unconstitutional legislation that would not improve the health care system, but would further compromise it's ability to work and deliver quality health care to all Americans. The health care bill written by the Senate is full of special interest giveways, preferencial treatment for unions, open access for illegal aliens and unconstitutional mandates for American citizens.
Americans deserve an open, honest debate about what our options are as a nation, and how best to reform the world's best health care system to make it even better. Using the reconciliation process to ram-through a 2700 page health care bill is an insult to everything this country stands for. As you are well aware, Barack Obama promised at least eight times on record that the health care bills being considered would be debated on television (CSPAN). In addition, Barack Obama is on record as being against reconciliation.
This should give you pause before you support a bill which hasn't been vetted or properly debated.
Please do the right thing; please remember your constitutional duty as a representative of this great Republic, and vote no on the healthcare bill.
Sincerely,

Health Care Legislation - Unconstitutional |

John W. Suthers
Colorado Attorney General
Department of Law
1525 Sherman Street
Denver, CO 80203
Dear Mr. Suthers:
I want to thank you for speaking out against the health care legislation making its way through Congress. It is clear to me that both of these bills are unconstitutional, and I am relieved that you agree. Our Senators and most of our Representatives clearly do not understand the limits of federal power as outlined in the Constitution.
The full funding of Medicaid in Nebraska is not the only provision that is clearly unequal treatment under the law. The payoff to labor unions, by exempting their members from taxation on their Cadillac health plans, is also clearly unequal treatment of taxpayers.
Our Colorado legislators and elected officials are our last line of defense against a federal government that has run amok. Thank you for watching our backs.
Sincerely,

Amnesty bill HR 4321 - Oppose |

Representative Betsy Markey
123 N. College Avenue, Suite 220
Fort Collins, CO 80524
Dear Representative Markey:
The Amnesty bill, H.R. 4321, which was introduced on December 15, 2009, is an insult to all Americans. With the unemployment rate at 10%, I cannot understand why Congress would even consider a bill that will only exacerbate the problem. Immigration, both legal and illegal, needs to be reduced. An amnesty will only encourage more illegal aliens to enter our country and take more jobs from honest Americans.
I urge you to oppose this bill at every opportunity.
Sincerely,

Representative Charles Rangel (NY, District 15)
Chairman, Ways and Means Committee
2354 Rayburn House Office Building
Washington, DC 20515
To: Chairman Rangel,
Subject: Request for hearing on the FairTax
Dare to be Fair! Schedule a Hearing on the Fair Tax.
Whereas, the FairTax Bill will produce an economic boom which could create millions of American jobs, deliver 100% of all earned income to Americans free of deductions for federal income taxes or other payroll taxes, and bring to the U. S. an estimated $11 to $15 trillion from offshore accounts and investments by Americans, foreign corporations and individuals; and,
Whereas, the FairTax Bill will abolish the IRS and 67,500 pages of income tax regulations thereby eliminating a projected $300 billion in annual tax preparation costs and endless hours of frustrating tax form preparation and filings by honest Americans, and which will eliminate an overly complex tax code even the IRS itself admits there are parts it cannot understand that benefits tax lawyers, lobbyists and senior Members of Congress on tax writing committees who cut deals for wealthy corporations and individuals; and,
Whereas, the FairTax Bill will cause those who come by their income illegally to pay their fair share of taxes thereby reducing the tax burden on all honest, taxpaying Americans; and,
Whereas, the FairTax will establish a sales tax to be paid only on new retail products, when each person chooses to make a purchase and the FairTax has been endorsed as simple, wise, efficient and pro-growth by more than 80 prominent economists including Nobel Prize winning economist Dr. Vernon Smith; therefore,
I, the undersigned, do hereby respectfully call upon the Ways and Means Committee to conduct a fair, open public hearing on the FairTax Bill H. R. 25, allotting 50% of the time each to the proponents and opponents on or about Tax Day April 15, 2010, and then send H. R. 25 to a vote of the entire House of Representatives.
Sincerely,

Universal Voter Registration - Oppose |

Mr. Bernie Buescher
Colorado Secretary of State
1700 Broadway
Denver, CO 80290
In January, Chuck Schumer and Barney Frank will propose universal voter registration. What is universal voter registration? It means all of the state laws on elections will be overriden by a federal mandate. The feds will tell the states: 'take everyone on every list of welfare that you have, take everyone on every list of unemployed you have, take everyone on every list of property owners, take everyone on every list of driver's license holders and register them to vote regardless of whether they want to be...'"
This is unconstitutional as we have 50 individual elections and the states determine how their respective elections will be conducted. We have a federal government not a national government.
This will have the effect of registering felons, illegal aliens, and legal aliens, as well as children too young to vote. Universal voter registration has FRAUD written all over it. I urge you to register your objections to this bill with our Senators and Representatives as soon as it is introduced. In the event this bill is actually passed, I urge you to refuse to implement this reckless legislation.
Concerned citizen,
