Washington, D.C. — U.S. Rep. Bob Etheridge (D-Lillington) released a statement last night on his upcoming vote on H.R. 4872, “The Health Care &Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010”:
“The working families of the 2nd District need solutions, not more fear, neither the real fears of rising cost nor the false fears spread by special interests. I have listened to North Carolinians from all points of view and after prayerful consideration, I voted for these needed reforms because this is the best chance we have to reduce sky-rocketing health care costs for North Carolina families.”
