AMEDORI: Launches Online Petition to Stop Reconciliation

(Westminster, MD) Today, Carmen Amedori, Republican candidate for United States Senate in Maryland, launched an online petition calling on United States Senator Barbara Mikulski to vote no on reconciliation for Obamacare. Please sign Carmen’s Petition by visiting http://www.amedoriforsenate.com/petition.php

“Reconciliation is not the method to pass health care reform. This parliamentary maneuver has never been used for such a sweeping piece of legislation,” said Amedori. “The President’s plan for health care reform is seriously flawed. That’s why no one elected Republican Senator will support the legislation.”

Reconciliation has been used 19 times since 1980. 12 of those times the procedure was used to pass omnibus budget bills that had an overwhelming support in the Senate. Only on 2 occasions the budget bills were controversial enough to lack bipartisan support.

“I am launching this online effort to send a message to our Senator that Marylanders don’t want Obamacare forced down our throats and that she should vote against reconciliation,” state Amedori. “A national mandate is not a way to make health care more affordable.”

People can join Carmen’s effort by visiting

Amedori believes that a health care reform package must include tort reform, associated health plans, rules that allow people to purchase health insurance across state lines, more emphasis on health savings accounts and a method for allowing people with pre-existing conditions to purchase insurance coverage.

Amedori is a former Maryland House Delegate where she served on the Judiciary Committee and quickly rose to the position of Assistant Minority Leader. She earned a distinguished reputation for being tough on crime, a strong advocate for property rights, and a champion for small business. In 2004, Governor Robert Ehrlich honored Amedori by appointing her to the Maryland Parole Commission where she served until last year.

Amedori is a graduate of Stevenson University. Before entering public life, she was a paralegal and journalist for the Baltimore Sun. She is the proud mother of two daughters.

Amedori believes that as the next United States Senator she can do a better job for the people of Maryland. She wants to Maryland First ahead of political partisanship. “It is time we had a Senator focused on results rather than political gamesmanship. As a former member of the House Delegates, I know how to make a difference. Barbara has had 24 years and now is the time for new leadership,” added Amedori.
