Dear Friends of Liberty,
Word just came that Bob Marshall's HB10 has been assigned to the Senate Education and Health Committee. Why would this bill be assigned to Education and Health when the Senate versions were assigned to Commerce and Trade if not to stop it's passage? Can it be that no one on the Senate side wants Bob Marshall to get credit for his defense of our health care freedom? What about credit for all of your hard work on HB10 which was the first bill we came together on.
Here is the list of the members of that committee:
Houck (Chairman), Saslaw, Lucas, Howell, Quayle, Martin, Newman, Edwards, Ruff, Whipple, Blevins, Locke, Barker, Northam, Miller, J.C.
Suggested script:
Dear Senator ___________,
On January 18, 2010 I was one of approximately 2400 citizens who came to the state capitol to lobby and rally for support of Delegate Bob Marshall's HB10, the Virginia Healthcare Freedom Act.
I believe that the federal government is stepping outside its authority to mandate that each citizen of this nation purchase a federally approved health care plan. No court has ever ruled in favor of a contract entered into under duress. But if the proposed federal mandate passes, every citizen will be forced to comply or be taxed $1900 and if they don't pay, could even be sentenced to a year in jail under IRS laws.
These 2400 citizens asked Delegate Bob Marshall to provide us with a bill to protect the citizens of Virginia against this federal mandate and he answered to our call with HB10, the Virginia Healthcare Freedom Act.
Now I ask you, will you protect the rights of the citizens of our great Commonwealth by voting "yes" to HB10 when it comes up in your committee for a vote?
Sincerely,
(Your name)
We need all hands on deck. We have come too far to compromise now.
Please contact the members of this committee TODAY! This bill could come up in committee at the next meeting which is Thursday, February 18,2010. Then spread the word and ask all of your friends, neighbors, family, co-workers, and social networks to do the same.
Even though the Senate bill has passed both houses, HB10 was one of only two bills our legislative campaign was based on.
A win for HB10 is a win for the VA 10th Amendment Revolution!!!
Yours in liberty,
Donna Holt
