Grassley complains about Obama web site
U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley is complaining the Obama administration may be breaking the law with a web site that has a button asking visitors to “state your support” for passing heath insurance reform this year.
The button leads to a form letter expressing support for a series of reform principles and lets them leave their names and contact information.
Grassley sent a letter to HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, saying, “the use of the official HHS.gov Web site for activities that seem to be nothing more than government propaganda raises many serious questions,” according to a story posted last night on Roll Call’s web site.
An HHS spokesman, Nick Papas responed: “Healthreform.gov is a valuable resource for the American people and we look forward to discussing this resource with the Senator,” Roll Call says.
