For Your Health!

At the House Republicans’ recent weekend retreat, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney told them to come up with a health care plan before the Democrats.
Ladies and gentlemen, the House GOP Health Care Task Force!
- Rep. Roy Blunt (R-MO), Chairman
- Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX)
- Rep. Judy Biggert (R-IL)
- Rep. Charles Boustany (R-LA)
- Rep. Ginny Brown-Waite (R-FL)
- Rep. Michael Burgess (R-TX)
- Rep. Dave Camp (R-MI)
- Rep. Nathan Deal (R-GA)
- Rep. Phil Gingrey (R-GA)
- Rep. Wally Herger (R-CA)
- Rep. Lynn Jenkins (R-KS)
- Rep. Howard P. “Buck” McKeon (R-CA)
- Rep. Tim Murphy (R-PA)
- Rep. Tom Price (R-GA)
- Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)
- Rep. John Shadegg (R-AZ)
Congressional Quarterly first noted that the members of the task force have collected nearly $3 million from health care PACs. I noticed that four members–Gingrey, Burgess, Murphy and Shadegg–were on a 2006 health care task force that didn’t do much beyond issuing statements in favor of health savings accounts.
