Carol Shea-Porter Introduces Health Bill w/ Pelosi, Hoyer

by: Dean Barker

Thu Oct 29, 2009 at 19:42:19 PM EDT


I've been looking for embeddable video of this all day (if you find it, let us know in the comments), but for now, go here to see full video of Speaker Pelosi's introduction of the House health care reform bill (h/t Pindell).

At the 11:20 mark, Congresswoman Shea-Porter, and resident of Bow Priscilla King, speak about the reforms in the bill targeted at closing that awful Medicare prescription drug donut hole.

This is really quite a coup, and after the Newsweek praise, the EMILY's List endorsement and attending the President's signing of the defense bill, a week of outstanding publicity for Carol and the hard work she has been doing on the Hill for the rest of us.

You can help support to continue her efforts to keep working on behalf of us right here.

Carol Shea-Porter is the poster child of government BY the people. (0.00 / 0)
The people in Washington know that.  The question is are the people whose interest are being served going to be properly appreciative.
I'm not talking about dollars.  Dollars don't vote.  A hefty campaign account may or may not prompt Republicans to spend dollar for dollar on advertising.  If it does, and the dollars actually flow through New Hampshire enterprises, that will be good.  If the dollars just flow into the pockets of Maryland and Virginia public relations shops, then they don't do us much good.
Republicans send advertising dollars to free weekly shoppers.  Even the leader of the Republican theme team in the House does that.
