Congressman Rothman has been holding his town halls around the district to talk to residents about the healthcare reform bills. Here is some video of people that were voicing their opposition to the plans, where the Congressman says very clearly that he has not taken a position on whether to support or oppose the plans that are out there:And here is video from Whitehouse.com of the town hall the Congressman held in Wallington. Rothman isn't alone for the Democrats that aren't yet on board apparently. John Adler isn't sold either:
Several times throughout the meeting Adler made it clear that he was OPPOSED to the health care bill and would vote AGAINST it.
Congressman Pallone and others held a press conference call yesterday to discuss the impact our broken health care system is having on Seniors and the importance of passing the health insurance reform that follows President Obama's Health Insurance Guarantees. It looks like the Congressman may need to start making calls to his own colleagues here in New Jersey to make sure that happens.
