Repeal health care?

For 2 years, GOP leaders in Congress

fought

tooth and nail to oppose

health care reform.

They did their best to keep

tens of millions without coverage,

decrying any effort

to help citizens as "socialist,"or "fascist" .

And incredibly,

they are now talking about repealing it.

And yet, when it comes

to their own coverage,

Republicans in Congress are not only using government-sponsored health care,

they are whining about having to wait for it.

Well, four brave members of Congress

are calling GOP leaders on their hypocrisy,

demanding they practice what they preach,

and calling on them to give up their

government-sponsored health care:

Four members -- Joe Crowley (NY), Linda Sanchez (CA), Donna Edwards (MD), and Tim Ryan (OH) -- are rounding up signatures for a letter to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, and Speaker-to-be John Boehner, encouraging them to press their members to refuse their federal health benefits based on the same principles underlying their opposition to health care reform.

"It is amazing that your members would complain about not having health care coverage for a few weeks, even after campaigning to repeal the Affordable Care Act, which will help provide coverage to millions of Americans who find themselves without health insurance for months or even years," the letter reads. "It begs the question: how many members of the Republican conference will be forgoing the employer-subsidized FEHBP coverage and experiencing what so many Americans find themselves forced to face? If your conference wants to deny millions of Americans affordable health care, your members should walk that walk."
