| Description | House Republican Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, released a statement Wednesday in response to reports that Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., will negotiate the final health care bill behind closed doors with President Barack Obama.
"The American people don't want the future of their health care being decided behind closed doors by three liberal Washington Democrats," Boehner said.
He added, "Instead of keeping his campaign promises of transparency, President Obama has allowed Speaker Pelosi and Senator Reid to operate in secret and play 'let's make a deal' with one-sixth of our economy."
Boehner said it is "just wrong to shut taxpayers out and then spend their hard-earned money on payoffs, kickbacks, and sweetheart deals to jam through this monstrosity." |
