Abstract
As health care reform bills wind their way through the labyrinth of Congress, the American public might ask: What kind of health insurance do members of Congress have?
Our nation's "masters of legislation" have a conveniently located health clinic right in the Capitol, called the Office of the Attending Physician. What do the members of Congress pay for their health care? Would you believe: $503 per year? Yes, per year!
Tell your Congressional representatives you want the same health plan that you are paying for them to have. If they say the nation cannot afford such health care for everyone, you will know them to be Masters of Hypocrisy!
