(Washington, D.C.) – This week, U.S. Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) kicked off an eight-week initiative to discuss health care reform with a speech on the U.S. Senate floor. Vitter is part of a group of Republican freshmen senators who have joined together to discuss common-sense health care ideas that don’t require big government intervention, like that proposed by the Democratic presidential candidates.

U.S. Sens. John Thune (R-S.D.), Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.), Mel Martinez (R-Fla.), Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), Richard Burr (R-N.C.) and Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) make up the rest of the group and will join Vitter in speaking on the U.S. Senate floor and in other activities over the next eight weeks to discuss health care reform and important, common-sense conservative proposals in the health care debate, including ways to address the rising overall cost of health care.

Vitter: “In this important presidential election year, all of the candidates will be discussing their ideas for addressing our health care challenges, but it will be our job in Congress to draft the legislation. While all of the pundits and media experts focus on universal and big government health care as the only possible solution, we will be speaking on the Senate floor and elsewhere to educate our colleagues and the American people about ways to reform health care without giving away personal choice, paying more in taxes or expanding and empowering an already inefficient, bloated government,” said Vitter.
