Boucher On The Fence

March 19, 2010

From BDTOnline.com: “Boucher, who voted against the original health care bill in the House, said his final decision will be based on what is in the best interest of Southwest Virginia….‘The text of the bill that will be debated and voted on this weekend was only circulated about two hours ago. It was posted about 2:30 p.m. today. I have not had an opportunity to read it yet. I do intend to read it and will review it carefully with the interest of Southwest Virginia health care recipients and health care deliverers in mind….As soon as I have had an opportunity to review the bill, and consider its provisions, I will reach a decision. Before I reach a decision, I will put out a public statement. I’m sure I’m going to have questions after I review it. I will place phone calls to knowledgeable individuals in my district to pose questions. When I reach a decision, I will put out a public statement.’” By Code Red
