| DPMA and 19 other groups call on Congress to declare PPACA unconstitutional |
|
December 15, 2011 Dear Member of Congress: On behalf of the undersigned members of the Health Care Freedom Coalition and our ally organizations, representing industry, policy, taxpayer, and medical professional groups, and their millions of patients and members, we urge co-sponsorship of House Resolution 475, introduced by Congressman Phil Roe, MD. As a coequal branch of government, elected by the people, Congress must keep their oath to "protect, preserve and defend the constitution" and make its views known regarding the constitutionality of this law. H. Res. 475 is a declaration to the United States Supreme Court and the people of the United States of America that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) is unconstitutional and the individual mandate and penalty provision that enforces it are not severable from the remainder of the PPACA. It is clear the American people and those engaged in the medical system do not agree with PPACA. A recent poll by Rasmussen has 55% of likely voters at least somewhat favor repeal of the law. Just one month ago in Ohio, 65% of voters rejected the individual mandate, adopting a constitutional amendment that "preserves the freedom of Ohioans to choose their health care and health care coverage." In addition, 85% of physicians believe that citizens should have the freedom to make their own health care decisions instead of being mandated by the government to purchase health care, according to a recent poll by Doctor Patient Medical Association. Our organizations collectively have organized and delivered millions of letters, calls and petitions to your offices, calling on the repeal of PPACA. We ask you to continue your leadership on this vitally important issue. We applaud Congressman Roe, thank the members who have already joined this effort, and call for all members of Congress to co-sponsor and pass this resolution. Sincerely,
|
