Marsha Blackburn
I am never surprised at the wisdom of the people of Tennessee. Recently, the Tennessean and other media outlets conducted a poll to gauge the support of Tennesseans for the health care law. The results speak volumes for the failure of the Obama Administration to listen to the people. Fifty-seven percent of registered voters surveyed said they oppose the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Only 30 percent said they support it.

Vice President Biden Continues the "Blame Game"
Marsha Blackburn
Last Friday, Vice President Biden delivered his speech to the Tennessee Democratic Party’s annual Jackson Day dinner. For some strange reason the Vice-President chose to rally party activists by defending what most Americans agree are enormous failings of their first 18 months in office – the Obama Administration’s economic and foreign policies. He would have been better off keeping the focus of his talking points on politics.Jul 16 2010
The Vice-President Visits Tennessee
Marsha Blackburn
Vice-President Joe Biden is in Nashville today to keynote the Tennessee Democratic Party’s annual Jackson Day event. Tennesseans are known for their good manners and graciousness and so we welcome the Vice-President to our state. I can’t help but think, however, that it would have been better if he had come to visit immediately after the catastrophic floods that devastated Nashville and the surrounding areas, instead of waiting until today, when there’s a fundraiser and checks to be picked up. Funny that he scheduled this keynote speech 44 days before the Tennessee floods, but is now billing his trip as a “flood damage tour.”Jul 15 2010
Sign My Petition Today: Cut Spending Now
Marsha Blackburn
Americans know that spending is out of control. With a deficit of over thirteen trillion dollars, the American people have told Washington “stop spending money we don’t have.” It is time for Congress to cut spending across the board, with the exception of three areas, the Department of Defense, Veterans Affairs and Homeland Security.
If we don’t act now, we all know that our children and grandchildren will be left to figure out a way to deal with an unsustainable debt. The future of our nation is at stake. I have launched a Petition to rally 10,000 citizens who agree that spending must be cut now. We all know that we must have across the board cuts, rather than line item budget cuts. I am proposing an across the board cut to all spending. I need your support to pressure Speaker Pelosi to move my proposal to the floor.
Will you sign my petition today? And then ask your friends and family to do so as well?

The Democrats' Magical Stimulus
Marsha Blackburn
A few weeks ago Vice President Biden announced a six week long campaign to promote the Obama Administration’s claim that “the Recovery Act is working.” The Vice President said “we never thought that $787 billion was going to fill the hole dug by the recession that was created by the policies of the last administration.”Jul 07 2010
McNairy County Event
Congressman Blackburn recently had an opportunity to attend a campaign event in McNairy County. We thought you might enjoy seeing a couple of the photographs from that event.
