Letter: Card comment
To the editor:
Last weekend, I received a 3 1/2-by-8 1/2-inch card printed in full color to inform me that “On April 3, the House passed H.R. 2575, the Save American Workers Act, with my strong support, by a bipartisan vote of 248-179.” It goes on: “This legislatiion repeals the Affordable Care Act’s 30-hour rule and restores the traditional 40-hour work week. … This law hurts the folks who can least afford it.”
A bipartisan vote in the House (or anywhere in Congress) is newsworthy these days, but this hardly conceals the intent: another try to reject/repeal “Obamacare.”
Even more, I am disturbed to see on the front of the card from Rep. Lynn Jenkins the return address with “PUBLIC DOCUMENT — OFFICIAL BUSINESS. This mailing was prepared, published and mailed at taxpayer expense.”
I paid for this?
