Turner Votes Against Government Health Care Takeover

Statement

Date: March 21, 2010
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Health and Health Care

Mike Turner today voted against the $1 trillion government takeover of our nation's healthcare system. Rep. Turner issued the following statement after the House of Representatives passed the bill during a rare Sunday session:

"I opposed this bill because it will increase budget deficits and decrease the quality of our health care services. Furthermore, it will cut more than $500 billion in Medicare resulting in reduced health care for seniors."
