MEDINA URGES PERRY TO CALL SPECIAL SESSION TO BLOCK HEALTH CARE REFORM IN TEXAS

“This bill devastates freedom and destroys healthcare. Texas must nullify the action by congress and fight for an injunction in the federal courts. I am urging Governor Perry today to call the Texas Legislature into special session. I am encouraging Attorney General Abbot to begin the work necessary to obtain an injunction against the IRS and the 111 other federal agencies empowered in this legislation to further embed Washington D.C. in our lives. These actions are critical to insuring that Texans are free to make our own decisions about healthcare” stated Medina.

As the U.S. Senate takes up HR 3962, the "Affordable Health Care for America Act," Texans must mobilize now as never before! We must not wait, there can be no delay. We must prepare for the eventuality that the U. S. Senate will pass this bill and be ready to immediately defend the sovereignty of the great state of Texas.

The Texas Legislature must act. Please call your state representative and state senator today. Find your district and their number here: http://www.fyi.legis.state.tx.us/. Ask them to demand that the governor call a special session to address the nationalization of healthcare; to nullify those actions by Congress that undermine the sovereignty of Texas.

With action by our legislature, Texas can solidify arguments for sovereignty in healthcare and against the bill on the grounds that it is unconstitutional. The federal government has no constitutional authority in healthcare. Texas will care for Texans.

Judge Andrew Napolitano said this weekend, “When Congress takes away our freedoms, they will be gone forever. What will you do to prevent this from happening?”

“Please call your state representative and your state senator today. Please join with TEA Parties, 912 Groups and other freedom minded organizations in your area to hold rallies here in Texas to alert all Texans to the need for a special session,” Medina urged. Together We Texans must exhibit the courage necessary to lead the country. We must staunchly defend our sovereignty; we must fight to insure that Texans remain free to make our own decisions about healthcare without mandates from Washington D.C.

Do somthing that works

The only solution that will work is to vote every Congressman of either party that voted for the Health Care fraud or the Stimulus Fraud, or the Second Tarp Fraud, or is suggesting that we not use the Tarp funds that are paid back or not used to eliminate the Tarp debt as the President promised he would when he asked for the second $350 Billion.

Getting kicked out of office is the only message they understand.

Defend Texas against Federal overreach

Perry ,as usual, is feigning conservative values pretending he has the stones to stand up against the Federal Government to defend the people and the State of Texas under the Ninth or Tenth amendments. Medina is a real person who will defend the people of the State of Texas under our Constitutional framework from the Federal governments socialist largesse.Perry is one more lap dog nestled in the security of huge, overreaching centralized government.

Not behind the times, but ahead of Perry

Well actually seeing as Texas legislature was is session in Feb. I find it hard to believe Perry called a "special sessesion". Last I checked on May 31 the last day of session, the bill pased the house, not the senate. It was just one of the many things not accomplished this year, and Medina is stepping up to be a leader, and is being proactive before National health care passes through the federal government.

A little behind the times are we?

Debra, as always, a little behind the times with your statement. Governor Perry called a special session way back in February and passed the 10th Amendment resolution, 81 HCR 50. Instead of reacting after the fact, Governor Perry foresaw this as a problem and took proactive measures.
