Be Careful What You Vote For

This is a critical election.  Do you want a Congressman, Flaccavento, who is so extreme that he received an endorsement from the socialist organization “Our Revolution?”

“Our Revolution” advocates Medicare for All, the total government takeover of health care, which would end private insurance.

Twenty million seniors would lose their Medicare Advantage plans because the Democrats would outlaw them. The price tag is estimated at $32 trillion, which would bankrupt our country.

Think about the countries, which have socialized medicine—poor quality of care, rationing and long wait times are the norm.

Democrats have short memories. Bernie Sanders’ home state tried to set up single payer. A Democrat governor gave up the idea when he found out there would have to be an 11.5 percent payroll tax, a 9.5 percent income tax, and more increases to come.

Democrats can’t get their facts straight. They claim Morgan Griffith took away health care for children, which is not true. Morgan Griffith voted for Championing Healthy Kids Act, HR 3922, which authorized health care for children by funding the Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP).

The bill also authorized funding for rural community health centers 31 of which are in the 9th District.

Flaccavento’s billboards around the NRV are fake news. Flaccavento stands for crushing taxes, big government, a flood of illegal immigrants and elimination of your health insurance so a nameless, faceless bureaucrat can control your health care.

Congressman Morgan Griffith stands for you and your quality of life in the 9th District.

Editor’s note: Flaccavento has not endorsed “crushing taxes, big government or a flood of illegal immigrants.” His website does say that he supports moving towards a single payer healthcare system “over the next several years.” He has also stated that he supports “broad immigration reform” that “protects boarders that offers a clear and reasonable path to legal citizenship.” This is not an endorsement of Flaccavento but rather the information that can be found on his website at www.flacc4congress.com.
