2. I say get them off of government run |
|
health care. Let's hear them explain why it's good for them but would be a disaster for the rest of us.

9. They're not on government run health care |
|
unless things have changed. See below, when my husband served in Congress he had Blue Cross/Blue Shield health insurance and had to pay his premium and deductible. He served form 1987-1993. Maybe things have changed :shrug:

This is one of those "moral outrage" email scams.

8. Members of Congress pay into Social Security as well as pay their |
|
own health care premium. When my husband served in Congress his health insurance was proved by Blue Cross/Blue Shield, the same health insurance he has now, he was responsible for his premium payment and the deductible.
