Equality in Helath Plans?

Got this in an email... not agreeing or disagreeing, just posting to make it known.

Please pass this on!!

On Tuesday, the Senate health committee voted 12-11 in favor of a two-page amendment that would require all Members and their staffs to enroll in any new Government-run health plan.

Congressman John Fleming (Louisiana physician) has proposed an Amendment that would require congressmen and senators to take the same healthcare plan they approve for us. Under proposed legislation they are curiously exempt. It took me less than a minute to sign up to require our congressmen and senators to drink at the same trough!

Congressman Fleming is encouraging people to go on his web site and sign his petition (very simple - just first, last and email). at:
Congressman John Fleming : Express Your Opinion

That's a committee vote that will never pass a full Senate vote. Just my .02
