Message From Senator Roland Burris

Received an email from one of my Senators, today, which included:

A public option would not result in rationed care or "death panels" of any description. It would not force anyone to change their doctor and would not provide benefits to illegal immigrants. As your Senator, I refuse to vote for any measure that would change our system in this way. But I also refuse to vote for anything less than the real, meaningful reform a public option would provide.

Maybe he's not so bad, after all.
