Guinta stands for insurance company profits and against NH's families and businesses; outlandish claims fly in the face of reality
Congressional hopeful Frank Guinta released a statement today continuing his assault on meaningful health insurance reform. In his statement, the candidate makes outlandish claims about the legislation unveiled by House Democrats today, reaffirming his support of the insurance industry. Furthermore, the statement was full of lies about the Congresswoman, falsely accusing her of refusing to meet with constituents to discuss her position on reform.
Guinta has a history of standing for insurance company profits and against New Hampshire's families and businesses. Recent FEC reports have revealed that the Congressional hopeful received a donation from a major insurance company PAC the day before publishing an Op-Ed supporting their position on health care reform.
"How can Frank Guinta make these outlandish claims? Is he serious?" said Derek Richer, Press Secretary for the New Hampshire Democratic Party. "His latest statement attacking the Congresswoman reads like it was signed, sealed, and delivered by the insurance industry."
Doctors, nurses and hospitals, consumer groups and seniors groups, even drug companies, have expressed support for reform. And a growing chorus of prominent Republicans have come out in support of meaningful reform as well, including Senator Olympia Snowe and Tommy Thompson, a former Secretary of Health and Human services in the Bush Administration.
"The people of New Hampshire support meaningful reform and Frank Guinta's latest statement shows that he would rather represent the insurance industry than the people of the Granite State."
