The reps that really stand out to me are:
No Diaz-Balart, Lincoln Rafael R FL-21 $515,875 31.30%
No Diaz-Balart, Mario Rafael R FL-25 $261,287 31.30%
No Teague, Harry D NM-2 $73,375 25.00%There are others but this one is the worst:
No Sessions, Pete R TX-32 $1,424,900 35.70%
35% of the people in Pete Sessions district do not have health insurance and he voted against reform. Of course I can see about 1,424,900 reasons why.

Did you or anyone you know read the bill?

Thanks for posting this. My Congressman, Childers, a Democrat, voted no. He make keep his job yet, although he did vote for the stimulus bill.

By the way Slarabee thanks for posting this so people can see how their own Congressperson voted. Very handy reference.

I read the statement by Kucinich and I respect his reason for voting no. Single Payer is the best way to truly reform the system, getting rid of the Insurance Mafia is true social justice.
I will have to look into the reasons for each of the ones I have issues with.
