Seniors thrown under the bus

Seniors thrown under the bus

Representative Peter Roskam voted lock step with every House Republican to repeal the Affordable Care Act. This law was passed by both houses of Congress, signed into law by the president, and then affirmed by the Supreme Court.

What were you thinking? Your seat is safe in November — you might have been the only Republican Representative to bravely do the right thing.

Does the fact that your major contributors are health insurers, health providers and the Koch brothers play a part in your decision?

I am a senior. You threw my fellow seniors, our youth, and our underinsured under the bus. Don’t expect my vote in November.
