Reminder: Rep. John Loughlin ‘Town Hall’ on Wednesday

Posted on September 30, 2009 by The Ocean State Republican

JohnLoughlinCongressboy Patrick Kennedy’s likely Republican opponent, State Representative John J. Loughlin, will be holding a health care “town hall” style meeting later tonight.

Loughlin’s town hall is scheduled to begin at 5:30 PM at Brantal’s Restaurant, 91 Crandall Road, in Tiverton.

This is not a “political” event. It’s actually going to be a real discussion, with real questions and answers from the audience, about health care reform. This is something that Rep. Patrick Kennedy thus far has not found the time to do with his constituents in the First Congressional District.

Rep. Loughlin indicated that he will mail a DVD to Rep. Patrick Kennedy, since he’s very busy attending fundraisers and other events, including several in other states.

JohnLoughlinForCongressDear Friend,

Are you ready to reclaim our government from out-of-control spending, ever escalating taxes, and a federal take over of health care? I know I am! That’s why I decided to challenge Congressman Kennedy.

I pledge to bring back responsive representation to the First Congressional District. That’s why I am hosting a Health Care Town Hall meeting.

Health Care Town Hall Meeting

Wednesday, September 30, 2009
5:30 PM to 8:30 PM

Brantal’s Restaurant
91 Crandall Road
Tiverton, RI 02878

Sure, Congressman Kennedy held a forum, but it was sponsored by special interests and for special interests, public not invited. I invite all who feel they have questions, and need to get answers, to attend my meeting. After all, this is your town hall meeting. In fact, we’ll create a DVD and mail it to the Congressman’s Washington, DC office so he can see what you think about healthcare.

Wednesday also marks the end of fundraising quarter and soon after, we will report how we did. If you can make a small contribution before Wednesday on-line, we will cross that finish line very strong.

Thank you for all your support and help – together we will restore responsive leadership to the First Congressional District.

All the best,

John Loughlin

P.S. You can make a difference for our State and our Nation. Contact John at (401) 523-9700 or rep-john [at] cox [dot] net to volunteer.

Posted on September 28, 2009 by The Ocean State Republican

Patrick-KennedyRep. Patrick Kennedy Says People Can Opt Out of Listing STDs, Abortions in Gov’t-Mandated Electronic Health Records.

(CNSNews) – Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D.-R.I.) says people will be able to stop doctors from including records of sexually transmitted diseases and abortions in the new national system of Electronic Health Records that was mandated by the stimulus law enacted in February.

The law says that doctors, hospitals and other health care providers must create an Electronic Health Record (EHR) for every American by 2014 or else face deductions in their Medicare payments. The EHRs are supposed to be integrated into a national health care IT system where health-care providers nationwide as well as the government would have the ability to access them when authorized.

“This is totally going to be up to the individual,” Kennedy told CNSNews.com when specifically asked if these EHRs would include any STDs or abortions in a person’s medical history…
