Operation Health Freedom Website Launched
WASHINGTON - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Today, House Republicans are holding a press conference in front of a
rallying crowd to oppose the Democrat's health reform plan introduced
late last week. Campaign for Liberty, which announced its support for an
alternative to the Democrat health reform plan last week as well, is
also launching a new project and website to promote its proposal.
The project, Operation Health Freedom (http://www.OperationHealthFreedom.com),
boasts a site which gives visitors information on the legislation and on
how to contact their representatives in Congress to urge them to support
this alternative health reform package.
"Campaign for Liberty is proposing that Congress try passing legislation
that promotes true health freedom," said John
Tate, President of Campaign for Liberty. "The same
government that has given us trillions of dollars in unfunded
liabilities for Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security is not going to
fix our health care system with this latest bureaucratic scheme. It's
time to vote health freedom."
The Operation Health Freedom package includes legislation introduced by Congressman
Ron Paul. The cornerstone of the package is H.R.
1495, the Comprehensive Health Care Reform Act of 2009, which
provides all Americans with a tax credit for 100% of health care
expenses, a tax credit for premiums for high-deductible insurance
policies connected with a Health Savings Account (HSA), and allows
seniors to use funds in an HSA to pay for a medigap policy. In addition,
it makes all medical expenses tax deductible.
Also included are H.R.
2629, a bill that prevents the government from requiring people
to purchase health insurance, and H.R.
3217, introduced by Congressman John Shadegg, which permits
the purchase of health insurance across state lines and will ultimately
lower costs due to the resulting competition.
