An email he sent to the press this morning in response to the high jobless rate:
5. Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.), 8:51 a.m.:
“The American people do not support a government healthcare plan that will increase costs, reduce patient choice and flexibility, and lower the quality of care available in our country. The American people do not support the radical Cap & Tax plan which will impose a hard-hitting tax upon families and small businesses costing our struggling economy thousands of jobs…At some point, even the Speaker must realize that enough is enough. Republicans will continue to offer innovative solutions that put job creation first, and we hope that fair minded, centrist Democrats concerned about the direction this Congress has taken will work together with us.”
Eric’s answer is an innovative Solution?:
- No to to government plan to compete with private insurance.
- No to Cap & Trade plan as a free market solution to carbon and global warming.
