Title, Tone and Substance of Republican 'JOB KILLER' Health Repeal Bill Wrong in Wake of Arizona Tragedy, Bob Weiner Says on Fox
January 17, 2011The title, tone, and substance of the Republican "JOB KILLER" Health Repeal Bill are "wrong in the wake of the Arizona tragedy," national Democratic strategist and former White House and congressional senior staff Robert Weiner said this morning in an interview on TV's "Fox and Friends." "It's wrong that the Republicans would use that tone and 'Job Killer' should be deleted from the title. There were 160 Republican amendments included in the health bill, mostly tax breaks for small businesses to help small businesses hire. The bill will create 300,000 jobs. It's impossible for them to attack the provisions actually in the bill — including no block for pre-existing conditions, seniors getting full drug coverage, keeping your children on your plan through age 26, lifetime coverage with no ceiling, and preventive care."
