REPEALING ANTITRUST EXEMPTIONS FOR HEALTH INSURERS
Dear Friend:
Last week, I joined my colleagues in a bipartisan effort in the House of Representatives to support legislation that will create greater competition in the health insurance market, and end the unfair antitrust advantage that health insurers have relied on to exorbitantly raise premium rates.

2. The moral and virtuous framework of our freedoms with respect to liberty, justice and the over-all respect of property seems to be by the demand of the current administration and not by the Bill of Rights, Constitution, and the Declaration of Independence.
