Week of June 13, 2011 From our Chairman: Thanks to many We’ve Hit One Million Petitions so far but still need more! In January we hand delivered more than half a million petitions to House of Representative leaders in a press conference outside the Capitol. The next day the House voted in veto-proof numbers to repeal the ObamaCare legislation that was never approved by the American people in the first place. Since then our TV ads, Facebook site and phone outreach program have all been put into high gear to begin again—gathering so many petitions that Democratic Senators will “feel the heat” and then “see the light”. We have waited to begin delivering both print and voice petitions to the Senate until we have big numbers— including sufficient petitions from each state where votes are needed. We think a million petitions is a good number to start delivery but how do we actually make sure they are seen and heard by Senate offices resisting the will of the people to repeal ObamaCare? We’ve decided that “hand delivery” may be old-fashioned but effective--still the best method to make sure that we’re heard. Starting in early July I will personally visit each and every Senate Democrat’s office, armed with petitions from every corner of the nation. We’ll be starting where we have the very best hope of progress—the Senators who face the voters again next year. We’ll start with both Nelson’s—Bill from Florida and Ben from Nebraska. We’ll take the voice of the American people demanding repeal to Missouri’s Claire McCaskill’s office and then onto the office of Joe Manchin of West Virginia. Each remaining Democratic Senate office will also get visits and petitions. We need four more votes. Four more won’t be “veto-proof” but will equal 51 votes in the Senate (together with 47 Republican Senators who have already voted for repeal). We’ve said it before but once again, here’s our reasoning—once both Houses of Congress have voted for repeal along with two federal courts ruling it unconstitutional, 26 states suing to get out and a determined majority of citizens who still favor repeal, the White House will have a toxic choice. If Mr. Obama decides that his “signature issue” is more important than the will of the people and both Houses of Congress he will veto the repeal legislation. By doing so he will be making the strongest possible argument to voters that he does not deserve to be re-elected in 2012. |
The Common Sense Society New Study Predicts that Three of Ten Employers Will Drop Healthcare Coverage A disturbing new study reveals that of more than a thousand businesses surveyed, 30-50% will drop coverage, choosing instead to pay federal penalties rather than adopt new, higher cost coverage required by ObamaCare. This new study by the McKinsey Group foretells a national healthcare disaster by 2014 when the law is fully implemented. The study also proves again that Mr. Obama’s repeated and exasperated statements that every American could keep the health insurance they like were nothing more than sound and fury signifying nothing truthful. Another recent study revealed that family healthcare coverage will go up more than $2,100 a year because of ObamaCare. Others show that many doctors will quit and many more will stop taking Medicare patients. We Have Three Paths to Repeal There are three primary paths to repeal of ObamaCare before even more damage is done to the healthcare system, the national economy and family budgets. |
just four more votes. Once the House and Senate are both on record
as repealing ObamaCare only a Presidential veto will stop the bad
law from being erased from the books.
that ObamaCare is unconstitutional. These lawsuits are expected to
make their way to the Supreme Court by summer, 2012.

Clarence Thomas recuse himself from this case as Mrs. Thomas once
worked for the Heritage Foundation which has been critical of ObamaCare.)
defeated and newly elected Senators take office in January 2013 and
vote to repeal. There may also be a new President in the White House
who supports repeal.
We favor “option one” for this reason: The legislative branch of our government ignored the “consent of the governed” when they voted for passage of ObamaCare. Every poll demonstrated then—and still do—that a majority of citizens were against passage. We didn’t like the intrusion into our lives with the universal mandate, we didn’t like the side deals made with Senators to buy votes and we didn’t like the cost or the very idea of a federal government takeover of healthcare. It seems only fitting that the people of the United States now force the legislative branch to vote the will of the people. The House of Representatives has—good for them. Nearly half of the Senate has—good for them. Now we must open the ears of Democratic Senators like Bill Nelson of Florida and Clair McCaskill of Missouri who deliberately ignored and then voted against majority will of their bosses—the people of each state. ObamaCare at the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals This last week 26 states were heard by a three judge panel of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta. Two of the randomly selected judges are Clinton appointees and one was appointed by George W. Bush. Appearing for the Administration was Neal Katyal, the Acting Solicitor General who previously got the go-ahead from now Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan to “crush them” (the states and other ObamaCare plaintiffs). Two of the judges seemed very critical of the government’s argument that the Constitution’s “Commerce Clause” allows Congress to require purchases by every citizen. “If they could compel this, what purchase could they not compel?” one judge asked. The states lawyer responded, ““It boils down to the question of whether the federal government can compel people into commerce to better regulate the individual.” Mr. Katyal frighteningly responded that courts must provide wide leeway whenever Congress regulates any economic activity. In another argument he seemed to suggest that Americans could simply, “earn less” if they wanted to escape the mandatory coverage payments. The court gave no indication of when it might rule. |
“There is unfinished business. The vision hasn’t changed. What we care about hasn’t changed." That's Mr. Obama exhorting voters to give him four more years to, "fundamentally change America". Between an unconstitutional healthcare takeover, triple-high gas prices, a trillion dollars a year deficit and fewer and fewer jobs, we're ready for change alright but not the one he thinks. We actually like America.AARP, the state of Nevada, pricey restaurants in Nancy Pelosi's district, one union after another, committee staff who wrote the law and White House and Congressional leaders all got one form of exemption or another. Little wonder--we now know that 30-50% of employers will drop family coverage, families will pay thousands more for healthcare, seniors won't find doctors and we will face rationing. Unacceptable.More favorable treatment for friends of Obama(care): HHS announced late Friday that Nevada (Senator Harry Reid) has been has been granted a statewide waiver from implementation requirements on healthcare insurers because HHS admitted, “[they]may lead to the destabilization of the individual market.” More evidence that friends get special treatment when it becomes clear that ObamaCare doesn't work. Repeal It. More unintended consequences demand repeal: Three in ten employers will abandon offering health coverage to their employees when ObamaCare takes effect in 2014. Thirty percent of companies say they will “definitely or probably” stop offering employer-sponsored coverage, according to the study published by McKinsey Quarterly. Are Senate Democrats listening? It's a disaster unfolding. Why Should You Help? Repeal It Now is a non-profit campaign that is entirely funded by grassroots petition signers and supporters of immediate repeal. No funds are accepted from businesses with any interest in the healthcare system. This is a grassroots citizen's campaign. Every dollar contributed goes into gathering millions of petitions to put pressure on Washington officials to vote for repeal. The TV ads funded by our supporters serve three primary goals: |
Whether large or small, every contribution is treated as precious. Every dollar donated moves us nearer the moment when we reach the "tipping point" of so much intense pressure on Congress that there is no other choice but outright repeal of this destructive and unwanted legislation.
