"Medicare For All" Divides House Democrats
- By Eagle Forum
At the start of the 116th Congress, Speaker Nancy Pelosi called for action on the Medicare for All Act of 2019 (H.R. 1384). If enacted, this legislation would create a socialist single-payer government-funded health system that completely overhauls the private healthcare market. By removing the profit from healthcare, Democrats tout that Medicare for All will finally provide all people the coverage to which they feel entitled. In fact, Democrats believe that this idea is so appealing, presidential candidates have decided to make it a priority in their campaigns. What they fail to present is that the lack of innovation and quality services through government-run healthcare will only drive our nation’s well-being into the ground. Like all socialized medicine, it will also mean no individual choice and rationing.

Ask Your Congressman to Vote NO on the “Open Borders Act of 2019”
- By Eagle Forum
House Democrats have yet again been hard at work crafting disingenuous legislation meant to “help” our immigration system. However, the Homeland Security Improvement Act (H.R. 2203) jeopardizes both the Trump administration’s agenda and the nation’s safety. House Republicans have rightly nick-named it the “Open Borders Act of 2019.”
