MELISSA BEAN VOTING RECORD

(please note at the bottom of this page is an attachment you can make copies to pass out )

 

Melissa Beans voting record and actions under the 111th Congress are unacceptable and do not represent the majority of the people which live inside District 8. Her reckless spending spree with our money need to come to a halt. Melissa Bean refuses to meet with her Constituents to discuss what the 8th District needs…… and that is JOBS and ECONOMIC GROWTH..Melissa Beans voting record has created a hostile environment for economic growth and job creation. All it has done is create Bigger Government and Unsustainable Debt for our children and Grandchildren. UNEMPLOYMENT, POVERTY AND FORCLOSURE ARE AT AN ALL TIME HIGH and she does not want to discuss these issues       MELISSA BEAN IS OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE AVERAGE AMERICAN IN THE 8TH DISTRICT…

 

Melissa Bean works for YOU the taxpayer. Her actions are unacceptable and are out of touch with the people inside District 8. Pease remember the following at the voting polls in November.

Congressman Melissa L. Bean
Democrat Representing Illinois’s 8th District
Congressman Bean's Key Votes:
Vote #1 Cap-and Trade Bill (American Clean Energy and Security Tax H.R. 2454)
Bean Voted: YES
A vote in favor of this bill established a “Cap-and-Trade” regime to reduce carbon emissions to slow “global
warming.” Also known as “Cap-and-Tax,” the bill would impose a new national energy tax costing each family
$3,000 per year on average. It is estimated to increase unemployment by 1,105,000 jobs per year.

Vote #2 Obamacare Private Health Care Takeover (Affordable Healthcare for America Act H.R. 3962)
Voted: YES
This Obamacare bill slashed Medicare benefits by nearly $500 billion for Seniors who paid into the system their
entire working lives, while increasing taxes $565 billion. The bill requires private insurers to add applicants with
pre-existing conditions and children to the age of 26, raising private health insurance costs for most working
Americans and small business. Bill mandates that 30 million Americans buy private insurance or receive free
government care. Bill provides for “rationing” for life-saving medical procedures. The Congressional Budget Office
estimates Obamacare will add $1 trillion to federal costs over the next decade.

Vote #3 Obama-Pelosi Stimulus (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act H.R. 1)
Voted: YES
A vote in favor of this bill approved $819 billion for President Obama’s stimulus program. One third of the

the economic stimulus, unemployment has increased to 9.6%, the highest unemployment rate in 26 years.
