To the editor,
Regarding the op-ed written in the June 30 Herald by U.S. Sen. Al Franken :
The debate is about health insurance. By law in the United States if someone shows up at the emergency room, they will get health care. That includes illegal aliens.
Sen. Franken, you've met with people with chronic health issues. I thought Obamacare took care that. No one will go bankrupt anymore because of health insurance.
What good is a health-care policy, even for low income people, provided free through Obamacare if the deductible is $6,000 to $10,000? They can't pay it.

Nancy Pelosi said we have to pass the bill to find out what's in the bill. Now you want the Republicans to include you. The Republicans were told to sit in the back, and none voted for this act.
Please admit this is one of history's biggest screwups.
