I am writing as your constituent in the 3rd Congressional district of Colorado. I oppose H.R.4160 - State Health Flexibility Act of 2012. Women need affordable and open access to health care. History has made it very clear what happens when they are forced to live without these rights. Furthermore, Colorado nor any other state, should have its hands tied by the federal government about how it can assist its own people.
Sincerely,
Jamie Newton -

While I would prefer single-payer, I view the PPACA as a step in that correct direction and do not wish to see it repealed. The morally-reprehensible and fiscally-irresponsible focus on abortion is also offensive.
