NEWS RELEASE

Gilbert Baker Calls out Lincoln for Announcing Her “Yes” Vote on Cloture

Baker: “A vote for cloture is a vote for government-run health care”

Conway, Ark. – Sen. Gilbert Baker issued the following statement in response to Blanche Lincoln’s announcement that she will vote for cloture which paves the way for government-run health care:

“The people of Arkansas now know that Blanche Lincoln is more beholden to the Washington establishment than to the people who elected her to office. A vote for cloture is a vote for government-run health care. Lincoln is selling out to the Obama-Reid, government-run health care plan. I will never be a ‘yes’ vote for a health care plan that would hurt families, small businesses and our seniors. I do want health care reform, but this budget- busting plan is not the answer.”
