John Thune: “The promises made during the lead-up to and passage of Obamacare were that premiums were going to go down by $2,500.”

It’s a great message. I like the message. But it shouldn’t be paid for with taxpayer dollars.

Well, I think people are, there's voter fatigue with high gas prices and high diesel prices in my part of the world.

I just think, if you’re looking at issues that we want to get at the heart of what everybody seems to be saying, the Democrats and others are saying, are important, we're concerned about.

It's a pretty simple measure, but an important way to ensure that members of Congress are held to the standards that America should be able to expect of their representatives.
