Urge Congressmen Dennis Cardoza and Jim Costa To Vote Against Healthcare Legislation
 

Fresno Chamber Position: OPPOSE


A key vote on federal healthcare legislation could take place next week among members of the US House of Representatives and we need to urge our Congressmen Dennis Cardoza and Jim Costa to vote against this “job killer” bill. The last time a bill was before them, they both voted in support. We can’t allow this legislation to move forward because it will increase health care costs, create new burdens on businesses, greatly increase the government’s involvement in the health sector, and raise taxes on individuals and small businesses. It’s time for Congress to look for new ways to reform our healthcare system rather than saddle businesses with higher costs.
