Vote for Health Care Freedom on August 3rd - Vote Yes on Proposition C

At the end of the last legislative session, the Missouri General Assembly passed HB1764, the Health Care Freedom Act. That Act, now Proposition C, will be presented to the people of Missouri for ratification on August 3rd. This incredibly important Proposition protects Missourians' rights to choose the best health insurance options for their families and their businesses. Not everyone wants Proposition C to pass, and liberals recently filled a lawsuit to stop the vote!

President Obama and his like minded colleagues Nancy Polosi and Harry Reid ignored the will of the people when they forced their health control dictates through Congress. The Missouri Legislature responded in an overwhelming bipartisan vote by restoring government "of, by and for the people" by putting the Health Care Freedom Act on the ballot.

A Democrat lawyer in Jefferson City who shares the views of the Obama administration, filed the suit on behalf of two liberal activists seeking to remove Proposition C from the ballot because they fear they cannot win at the ballot box. They are trying to use a judge to do an end-run around the will of the elected Legislature and the will of the people. What is worse, but hurts their case, is the plaintiffs waited until after the ballots had been printed and citizens has already started voting absentee. Additionally they are not disclosing the funders of their endeavor which begs the question of what and whom they are trying to hide.

We can be assured that the same powers that want more and more Washington regulation of our health care and less and less individual liberty will stop at nothing to defeat Proposition C. Missourians should not be surprised that some people are seeking to stop us from ratifying the Health Care Freedom Act. The liberals know that if Missourians vote in favor of Proposition C, it will send political shockwaves around the country and spell the end of ObamaCare. We expected this kind of fight with law suits and the distribution and reporting of misinformation. These tactics are normal for highly charged issues and it just proves the importance of what we are doing.
