Chris Van Hollen

this is my rep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AN animal guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

He never rerturned email sent to his sight, never responded about helping the kids out here. . I supported and voted for him then he promply forgot about us. . .disappointed!

nice job Chris! I especially love "business tax credits for job creation" (don't forget us small biz guys with that, and your call for deficit reduction.

You GO Mr. Van Hollen!

Armey probably didnt even read it...The sad things is, this man is "supposed" to represent Texas, my home state where I grew up....Unfortunately, he doesnt get it at all...He DOES need to know HOW that dead cat got that way instead of reacting to the problem and shrugging so he can learn to PREVENT problems from happening again in the future.....Supidity and ignorance...

This good man is my representative

Thank you for your stance. This is very important. Americans including myself have been affected by companies not offering health insurance even when fulfilling full time hours. This is an important bill and as you stated a bill that will move America forward. It's time to change ways to prepare for the current society we serve.

Amazing that those who attend those "tea parties" because they are angry about high taxes never say a WORD about health insurance companies jacking up their premiums every year while they get less care and fewer choices, robbing thrm blind in the name of profits for themselves...I guess for them corporate welfare is "good waste" since its a business...Wasted money is all the same to the pocketbook, whether its an inept govt program or inept health insurance company robbing you blind..

THIS IS MY GUY!!!!!!!! How lucky am I to have him to represent me. Big supporter on animal bills.

Nice for Carol to recognize superior leadership, (thats why Democrats picked up FEDERAL SEATS, over those lame Conservatives) even though she's ful lof #@@#@ most of the time

I continue to appreciate Chris and others like him who are willing to dedicate their lives to such work. But I wonder about Mr. Ed. I kept thinking: "A horse is a horse, of course, of course, And no one can talk to a horse of course."

What about a grant for the kids of Poolesville??

Like you said Congressman...the end is not far...keep pushing and hopes high...it will surely go through...

I am worried that a bill will pass that will be a political disaster for the Democrats. As things now look, there will be an individual mandate that everyone buy (high priced) health insurance; nothing will be done to rein in insurance premiums or health care spending; and there won't be a public option, but the insurance companies and PhRMA will ... See Morereap massive new profits. We already spend more than twice as much on health care per capita as any other developed country for equal or worse health outcomes. I'm afraid that costs will continue to rise and 30-50 million more Americans will be forced to pay many thousands of dollars a year to the insurance robber-barons. And, of course, the Democrats will get the blame. I hope I'm wrong.

Just don't accept "compromises" that preserve present privateering practices on the part of insurance and drug companies.

Yes!! The insurance companies have abused this privilege so badly in order to maximize profits. How about a cap on profits -say 5%-- with excess going to adequate coverage for beneficiaries?
