Democrat Freshmen tell Pelosi NO NEW TAXES
By Brian Kirwin | Friday, July 17th, 2009 | PolicyThe Hill reports that 21 Dem Freshmen, including Reps. Glenn Nye, Gerry Connolly and Tom Perriello, signed a letter today telling Speaker Nancy Pelosi that they can not support the tax increases in Obama’s health care plan.
They even criticize the rollback of the Bush tax cuts, something Democrats have campaigned on constantly.
Maybe someone told them that the last time a bunch of Congressmen rode on the tails of a Presidential wave, most of them lost the very next election.
