Why Congressman Latham?





Call Tom and Ask Him to Finally Answer this Question:
Do you support John McCain's Radical Health Care Plan?


This week, on the WHO 1040 AM radio debate, Tom Latham was asked if he would support John McCain's radical health care plan. After skirting the question, Tom Latham said "...the general concept of it I would be supportive of."

John McCain's plan will tax health care benefits and lead 20 million workers, 217,346 in Iowa alone, to lose the coverage they get from their employers. He only offers a $5,000 tax credit to families to buy health insurance, but according to the Kaiser Family Foundation, the average family health insurance premium is over $12,000. McCain also said that he supports deregulating healthcare, just as he and Tom Latham did with the financial markets that have led to our economic crisis.

In the Des Moines Register, Latham refused to answer the question. To read the article, click here.
