Action Alert: Support S.C. Attorney General Henry McMaster's State Fairness Effort

Dear Friend,

South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster -- the leader of a group of 13 Republicans and one Democrat State Attorneys General -- is threatening to file a law suit against Congress in order to stop passage of the radical health care bill currently being considered.

The suit will be based on the fact that Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid made a deal with Democrat Senator Ben Nelson from Nebraska, who was the deciding vote for the Democrats' Obamacare bill and the deal was to have the federal government pay for Nebraska's Medicaid increases forever. Treating one state differently from other states on Medicaid funding in order to get a Senator's vote is unconstitutional.

South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster said: "Politicians in Washington are proposing to pass a law that is unfair, unjust and unconstitutional - and burdens 49 states. Senator (Ben) Nelson and the politicians in Washington are leading an assault on our constitutional rights and running up debt."

Nebraska Senator Ben Nelson actually called Attorney General Henry McMaster to tell him to "call off the dogs," regarding the recent threats by the 14 State Attorneys General to file a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of a Medicaid provision in the bill that benefits Nebraska at the expense of other states.

Senator Ben Nelson's sweetheart deal with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will cost American taxpayers in the other 49 states some $100 million over the next 10 years alone! And to secure the votes of other Democrat members of Congress, the Democrat leadership is cynically buying their votes.

Please do your part and contact your State Attorney General in your state capital to join S.C. Attorney General Henry McMaster, and his colleagues in the other states, in fighting the unconstitutional "Cornhusker Kickback" scheme.

Also, please be sure to visit the Christian Coalition of America Health Care Action Center and get other key facts and information to stay informed throughout the ongoing debate.

It is critical that conservatives stand together and let our elected officials know how we feel on this very important issue - before it is too late!

Take a moment and stand with us today.

Sincerely,

Roberta Combs, President
Christian Coalition of America
