| U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann is inviting the public to weigh on in the national health care debate on Thursday. The second-term Republican is hosting a town hall meeting in Lake Elmo. Bachmann has equated the proposal for a public health insurance option with rationing. She has said people don't want the government to control health care. She told a Christian radio station earlier this week that Minnesotans have been waiting for the chance to speak out on Democrats' proposal to overhaul health care. |
