Let Freedom Ring Must Reads
Statement by Colin Hanna, President of Let Freedom Ring, in response to Governor Chris Christie’s Scheme to Try and Raid the Reserve Funds of Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey
“Governor Chris Christie’s desperate attempt to try and rehabilitate his political image on the backs of hard working New Jersey taxpayers is downright shameful. In socialist Bernie Sanders fashion, his scheme of trying to raid the reserve funds of a private company, used to pay for the healthcare of millions of Garden State residents, borders on extortion. If successful, taxpayers and patients will be saddled with thousands of dollars in increased healthcare costs, potentially for years to come. Chris Christie has every right to promote his government pet projects, but he shouldn’t be putting taxpayers on the hook for his own political rehabilitation. As the NJ.com editorial rightly put it this week, Christie ‘…has no right to its [Horizon’s] money.’”
