Connie Mack Calls Out Bill Nelson on Health Care Repeal

With an eye on taking him on in 2012, Florida Republican U.S. Rep. Connie Mack threw down the gauntlet at Democratic U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson on Tuesday, demanding that the senator support repealing the federal health care law backed by President Barack Obama.

As the Senate prepares for a vote this evening to repeal Obamacare, it is critically important that you listen to the will of your constituents and to the federal courts that ruled it unconstitutional, and finally stop supporting this dreadful, unconstitutional and harmful piece of legislation, wrote Mack in a letter to Nelson sent out on Tuesday. Floridians await your decision, and also know to be mindful of any procedural motions ahead of the vote that would also measure your intentions.
