The American peoples' dissatisfaction with Democrats' health care proposals recently propelled Scott Brown to victory in Massachusetts. Republicans are urging Democrats to go back to the drawing board to draft real health care reform that will lower costs, strengthen Medicare, and increase access to health care for all Americans.
At a press conference in the US Capitol, Senate Republicans point out that Senator-elect Scott Brown's win in Massachusetts is a clear sign that Americans are fed up with Democrats' attempts to ram through health care legislation that would raise taxes, slash Medicare, and drive up insurance rates.

Republicans are fighting against Democratic health care reform proposals, which would cut your Medicare, raise your taxes, and threaten your health care choices. We believe that any health care reform legislation should lower costs and expand access without raising your taxes or adding billions of dollars to the deficit.
