09/28/2010 ~ NJ DISTRICT #8 ~ ROLAND STRATEN CAMPAIGN INFORMATION UPDATES

[George W. (gfwjr) "Oath-Keeper"]

Greetings Everyone,

.

As I receive information from the Roland Straten Campaign Headquarters and in newspaper articles I will be (have been) posting it to help keep you informed.

.

It is time for change, and I believe real change, change that will positively improve and make living in District # 8 better, changes that will be for all residents of district # 8, and not for the benefit of special interest groups, and lobbyist for private industries, and illegal immigrant organizations. I believe that Roland Straten will listen, hear, support and carryout the wants, will of the majority of his District # 8 constituents, as well as for the good of our state, and our Republic.

.

George W. (gfwjr)

[2]. STRATEN SIGNS ‘OBAMACARE REPEAL PLEDGE’

.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2010

.

PATERSON – Roland Straten, the Republican candidate for Congress from NJ’s 8^th District, has signed “The ObamaCare Repeal Pledge.” This Pledge, a joint project of Independent Women’s Voice (www.iwvoice.org) and American Majority Action (www.americanmajorityaction.org), states in part, “I pledge, if elected, to vote for all bills which seek to REPEAL the health care bill, HR 3590, signed into law on March 23, 2010.*

.

ObamaCare calls for $575 billion in Medicare cuts over the next decade. Its burdensome regulations, mandates and taxes will increase the costs of medical care and will reduce access to and quality of care as it drives doctors and hospitals out of business.

.

“The law is already having a negative effect on job creation, since employers can’t predict what their future costs will be,” said Straten, a lifelong Paterson business owner and Navy veteran.

.

Congressional candidates and incumbents are being asked to sign “The ObamaCare Repeal Pledge.” The goal, according to the Independent Women’s Voice website, is to “…move forward with genuine reforms that:

.

• Give control to patients and doctors, rather than bureaucrats;
• Honor our traditions of freedom of choice and privacy;
• Make medical care, and the practice of medicine, affordable;
• Promote a system in which good and timely care is available to all our citizens;
• Encourage continued innovation and investment in the development of new medical treatments.”

.

Bill Pascrell, the seven-term Democrat incumbent whom Straten aims to unseat, voted for and supports ObamaCare.
