Congressman Don Manzullo (R-IL) today joined dozens of his colleagues and
thousands of Americans on the steps of the U.S. Capitol for a news conference
to protest Speaker Pelosi’s government takeover of health care.

The House is scheduled to vote Saturday on Speaker Pelosi’s 1,990-page bill,
which would raise taxes $730 billion on Americans, cost 5 million more jobs,
threaten the health insurance of 114 million Americans, and spend more than $1
trillion.

Manzullo supports an alternative Republican bill that the nonpartisan
Congressional Budget Office states would reduce health insurance premiums up to
10 percent and cut the deficit by $68 billion without raising taxes and without
threatening the health insurance of millions of Americans.
