Thank You Montana Congressmen!

The vote to override President Bush’s veto of H.R. 6331 (Medicare Bill), was a welcome bit of good news in a storm of seemingly bad news (Economy).

Thank you, to each and every member of Congress from the great State of Montana. Especially Denny Rehberg, who crossed the partisan, political B.S. that has garnered Congress an all-time low 9% approval rating.

I have worked closely with each member of Congress from Montana, as President of the Big Sky Association of Medical Equipment Suppliers. No, we are not a P.A.C. We don’t have a lobby. We tell the truth for the best interest of the people of Montana and America.

This vote means I will have an increased interest in helping Rep. Rehberg (R, MT) beat back a push toward Socialized Medicine in future legislation. To be fair, I believe Senators Baucus (D, MT) and Tester (D,MT) are not in favor of Socialized Medicine. In fact, Senator Baucus has a health care plan that has a prominent role for the private sector.

My thanks on behalf of Montana small businesses and Montana Medicare beneficiaries. You did the right thing, but this isn’t a fix, it is only a small, small beginning.
