STATEHOUSE (September 11, 2009) - State Sen. Connie Lawson (R-Danville) urges those who oppose or support national health care reforms to voice their opinions now to Washington, D.C.   

Lawson said many area constituents have contacted her office at the Indiana Statehouse in an effort to pass along their views to U.S. Sens. Dick Lugar and Evan Bayh as well as to U.S. Reps. Steve Buyer and Brad Ellsworth.

"Over the past few months, I've received more e-mails, phone calls and letters about the federal health care package than any state issue. I've been pleased to connect area residents - especially seniors who hold very strong opinions about the federal bill's defeat or passage - to our members of Congress," Lawson said.

"With congressional leaders making last-minute changes to the federal health care proposal and the final congressional votes drawing closer, time is of the essence. I am now encouraging fellow Hoosiers to make direct contact with Sen. Lugar, Sen. Bayh, Rep. Buyer and Rep. Ellsworth at their earliest convenience with any questions or comments," Lawson said.
