Another Democrat Party line vote for Hagan so much for CRITICAL THINKING
Alphabetical by Senator Name
Friday, January 18, 2013
Maybe Kay Hagan should have Read the ObamaCare Bill First
U.S. Senator Kay Hagan (NC) joined with Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN)
in leading a letter with 16 other senators and senators-elect to Senate
Majority Leader Harry Reid urging a delay in the implementation of the
medical device tax that is scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2013.
"The medical technology industry directly employs over 400,000 people in the United States and is responsible for a total of two million high-skilled manufacturing jobs. Additionally, this industry is also one of the few that enjoys a net trade surplus, significantly boosting U.S. exports around the globe," the letter said. "As we work together to develop a long-term solution to help move our economy forward, reduce our debt and reform our tax code, we urge you to support delaying enactment of this provision in a fiscally responsible manner."
"My number one priority is getting North Carolinians back to work, and I am concerned about the effects of the planned medical device tax in North Carolina," said Hagan. "The medical device industry is critical to North Carolina's dynamic bioscience economy and when the tax was first proposed, I opposed its adoption. Democrats and Republicans must now work together to find a solution that does not harm our economic recovery."
"On behalf of the North Carolina business community, I want to express my concern over the threat that the medical device excise tax imposes on this vital sector of our state's economy," said Lew Ebert, president and CEO of the North Carolina Chamber. "We appreciate Senator Hagan bringing this critical issue to the attention of Senate leadership. A study done by AdvaMed shows that the planned implementation of this tax could cost North Carolina hundreds of jobs and an estimated $70 million in annual employment compensation. This tax will cripple the bottom line of North Carolina companies, many of which may not be able to survive this onslaught of taxation. Overall, it will jeopardize jobs, the health of patients and the medical device industry, nationwide."

Kay Hagan 3rd on the list of Senators capped to lose in 2014
3. North Carolina (D): Sen. Kay Hagan (D-N.C.) could
face a tough time in 2014 running in a state that gave its 15
electoral votes to Mitt Romney, elected a Republican governor, and
netted the GOP at least three seats in the House. What’s more, Hagan’s
approval rating is nothing to write home about. Democratic automated
pollster Public Policy Polling found earlier this month
that just 35 percent approved of the job she was doing, while 37
percent disapproved. Hagan, who unseated Republican Elizabeth Dole in
2008, should be among the senators most at risk in 2014.
