Foster Fundraising Off Support For Health Care Reform

While Democratic Rep. Bill Foster has recently suggested to reporters that he may vote against the health care reform bill in the U.S. House this weekend, a fundraising email he sent out yesterday would seem to indicate otherwise.  In it, he warns that he is the target of a "brutal" robocall campaign from the conservative group Citizens United, adding: "There is only one real response to this kind of tactic. In these waning days before the critical vote on health care reform is taken, I need your help to stand up to Citizens United -- and stand up for those who desperately need change. We expect the health care vote by Sunday – so please contribute $500, $250, $50, $20 or whatever you can afford ... so I can stand up to Citizens United." 

That doesn't sound like a guy who is going to vote no.  Click here to read the email in full.
