Dear Senator ___________________,
On January 18, 2010 I was one of approximately 2400 citizens who came to the state capitol to lobby and rally for support of Delegate Bob Marshall’s HB10, the Virginia Healthcare Freedom Act.
I believe that the federal government is stepping outside its authority to mandate that each citizen of this nation purchase a federally approved health care plan. No court has ever ruled in favor of a contract entered into under duress. But if the proposed federal mandate passes, every citizen will be forced to comply or be taxed $1900 and if they don’t pay, could even be sentenced to a year in jail under IRS laws.
These 2400 citizens asked Delegate Bob Marshall to provide us with a bill to protect the citizens of Virginia against this federal mandate and he answered to our call with HB10, the Virginia Healthcare Freedom Act.
Now I ask you, will you protect the rights of the citizens of our great Commonwealth by voting “yes” to HB10 when it comes up for a vote by the full Senate?
Sincerely,
(Your name)
Thank you for all you do to defend our state’s rights and restore our freedoms.
Yours in liberty,
Donna Holt
