AFP-Maryland Thanks Congressman Andy Harris For His Health Care Repeal Vote

Annapolis – Yesterday The House of Representatives voted to repeal and replace the healthcare reforms passed by the previous Congress last year. Grassroots support against a government takeover of health care over the last year was the catalyst for this vote.

Americans for Prosperity Maryland’s Political Director Nick Loffer issued the following statement:

“Americans for Prosperity has been fighting nationalized health care over the last year by hosting town halls and local meetings to educate citizens on the problems of the legislation.”

“We thank Congressman Harris for staying true to his word and helping to take the first legitimate step by Congress to repeal nationalized health care legislation. The First Congressional District overwhelming disapproved of any nationalized health care legislation and we are pleased that Congressman Harris is listening to the will of his constituents.”
