CHANDLER — U.S. Representative Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas), a vocal opponent of Obama’s healthcare reform, a leading fiscal conservative, and one of three House Republicans appointed to the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, will discuss the legislation here on Tuesday.

Hensarling will also share his concerns about the new law and how it will affect Henderson County residents.

“The government takeover of your health care passed by Washington Democrats and signed into law by President Obama will unalterably change the role of government in a society whose most cherished birthright is that of personal freedom,” Hensarling said. “No matter what Washington Democrats claim, this legislation takes control of your health-care decisions away from you and your doctor and gives it to the federal government. If you love the way the federal government is running AIG, our banks, and our auto companies, you’ll love the way they will run your health care.”

The event is set for 4 p.m., at Westlake Baptist Church.
