| Message | Dear Members of the Senate First of all. LRP is calling this bill better then PLP's bill? This bill doesn't privatize healthcare. It just stops free public healthcare for everyone, talking about making no exceptions. Article one is in our opinion not necessary in this bill. The only article that is acceptable to PLP is article 4. But as we said before. This bill is an empty box. People will start paying for their health as the free public healthcare disappears. With our bill it stays free for everyone. What about medical costs? Again LRP is exempting people with this bill. And we'll vote against this bill. Thank you Justan Trudo |

| Message | We agree with having both public and private health care but the health care must remain free to everyone in this country. We also agree with keeping vaccines mandatory. Articles 1,4,5 we happily agree with. |
