It doesn't matter if you identify as a Republican, Democrat or Independent voter. Does anyone think that drafting a bill in the Senate without any hearings to let the citizens of this country see what's involved in the legislation is the way we should do things?
This is not a minor bill—it will be affecting healthcare coverage of millions of people in the United States.
We have a right to see how it affect our family and others before a vote is rushed through.
The senators not involved in these closed sessions also need ample time to review this legislation.
Why the secrecy and rush job?
