Sent an email to Chambliss re Enzi's health care bill.

So THIS is what BS I get from dear old Saxby!

Thank you for contacting me regarding S. 1955, the Health
Insurance Marketplace Modernization and Affordability Act of 2005. It
is good to hear from you.

An estimated 45.8 million people were without health insurance
in 2004. The number of uninsured has risen in almost every year since
1989 and is expected to continue to rise in the near future. Our country
is certainly in need of more options to help ease the burden on small
business owners to provide insurance for their employees. S. 1955
would provide for the establishment and governance of Small Business
Health Plans (SBHPs).

I understand how important healthcare is to all Americans. Our
country is in need of affordable health insurance programs for those
individuals who currently lack the means to obtain benefits. It is also
important that these healthcare programs allow individuals access to
healthcare plans which best meet their needs, but we must ensure that
consumers are safe and protected.

S. 1955 will also allow for insurance plans to bypass some
standards set by individual state health insurance plan consumer laws.
This bill is scheduled to be voted on in the near future. Rest assured that
when this legislation comes to a vote, I will take into consideration all of
the effects that SBHPs will have on the State of Georgia.

Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me. As always, I
appreciate hearing from you. Additionally, if you would like to receive
