GOP group's TV ads press House members on health care repeal
WASHINGTON (AP) — A political group that backs House Republican leaders is using a $1.3 million television ad campaign to press two dozen representatives to back GOP efforts to scuttle President Barack Obama's health care overhaul.
The ads in GOP markets say the local lawmaker "has a plan to fix" Obama's law and asks viewers to urge the representative "to keep fighting for patient-centered health care."
Democrats say that GOP proposals would provide less coverage than Obama's system, force higher out-of-pocket costs on consumers and weaken Medicare.
