Better Solutions by House Republicans

These Solutions by Republicans at Solutions.gop.gov will form the foundation of the message that Republicans take to the electorate this year culminating on November 2, 2010 when all 435 seats of the House are up for election. It is a message of fiscal conservative values along with good old fashioned Common Sense which has been missing inside the beltway for some time.

The following four items from the Solutions.gop.gov website detail Republican Solutions for Healthcare, Energy, Jobs Plan, and the Budget. These were given to President Obama on Friday, January 29, 2010:

-The GOP Healthcare Alternative provides affordable access to all Americans, instead of mandating a one-size-fits-all health system

- The American Energy Act promotes affordable energy, more well-paying jobs, energy independence, and a cleaner environment

- The GOP No-Cost Jobs Plan stops wasteful spending and tax hikes, helps small businesses, and removes unnecessary barriers to American energy production

- The GOP Budget controls the national debt, does not raise taxes, and achieves lower deficits than the President's.

After reading the full articles on these items about what Republicans have submitted in the House since January 2009, you are left with 'these Solutions make sense so why won't the Democrats including Obama listen?' Simple answer: It doesn't fit their progressive (socialist agenda).

We would like for someone to answer where all the moderate and Blue Dogs were when these Progressives/Socialists took over the House under the leadership of Nancy Pelosi in Nov 2006. We didn't hear a peep about how progressive/socialist she was. Republicans were well aware, but had no say in who was going to be Speaker. Pelosi was a member of the Progressive Caucus and it only takes two minutes of your time searching to discover that is a fancy name for a socialist agenda. Guess a lot of the media missed that two minutes of searching.

During the first session of her reign, most of the Blue Dogs voted like they always had but the second session of the Congress, she cracked the whip and they went left. Not one Democrat knowing she was so far left voted against her for Speaker for the 2009-2010 session. Shows their lack of core values because when the chips are down they will do what she says. Pelosi will see them march off the plank and not bat an eyelash. The worst part is the vast majority will march right off.

Help spread the word that Republicans do have 'Solutions' and a smarter way of spending our tax dollars so that every dollar counts. Don't forget to remind voters we need to send the Pelosi Democrats to the Unemployment Line on Nov 2, 2010 and return Common Sense to the House of Representatives!

Better Solutions

Congressman John Boehner (R-West Chester) released the following web video highlighting the better solutions Republicans have been offering all year long on the budget, energy, putting Americans back to work and health care. Boehner appears on the video with the Better Solutions document House Republicans presented President Obama last week that counters the baseless claims that Republicans are the party of no ideas.

Boehner says:

“This is a time of great challenge for many in our country. Republicans believe in the American people – and throughout the past year, on issues ranging from health care to jobs, we’ve offered common-sense solutions aimed at getting government off Americans’ backs and unleashing the greatness of our people.“We presented President Obama with this book of our better solutions last Friday in a meeting with House Republicans, and we want to share it with you, too.”

The Better Solutions book is a compilation of GOP policy alternatives that were offered between January of 2009 and the present to address the nation’s top priorities.

The Better Solutions document and other information on GOP reform alternatives is also available at solutions.gop.gov.
