With just days before what is expected to be a major vote on the health care 'reform' bill, Minnesota Majority has announced the launch of a new radio ad campaign aimed at the constituents of US Representatives Tim Walz (Minnesota’s 1st Congressional district) and Colin Peterson (Minnesota’s 7th Congressional district). The ad warns of the pitfalls of H.R. 3692, the House version of the bill, and encourages concerned citizens to call their member of Congress.

“This may be one of the most important issues in our lifetime,” said Jeff Davis, president of Minnesota Majority. “Government has no business coming between a patient and their doctor.” Minnesota Majority says the bill with raise the cost of insurance, lower the quality of care, reduce patient choices, create billions of dollars in new government spending and put the government in-charge of deciding what treatments will be available to patients. “This bill amounts to a massive government takeover of our health care system,” said Davis. “Our goal is to educate the public and motivate them to contact their members of Congress.”

A generic version of the radio ad is provided in a YouTube video at  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIr3-8Eerog. The actual advertisement being aired includes the congressmen's name and telephone numbers.
