Dear Mr. Dold,
Please pass on my thanks to everyone who contributed to the awesome care package. I can tell you that everything was greatly appreciated!! It really means a lot to see the American people standing behind us. Your support and appreciation make it a little easier to be away from our friends and family. I hope you and your family had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Ringing in the new year in northern Afghanistan just isn’t the same as in the States… however, we made due.
I wish you and your team all the best during your run for Congress. Based on your stance and priorities noted in the enclosed pamphlet and on your website, I think you would serve not just the 10th District well, but the entire state. And while the 10th District is up north, please don’t forget about everyone down south!
Thanks again and God Bless!!
Tom

The current Democrat-backed health care plan will increase government health expenditures by an estimated $1 trillion over a ten year period. While the consequences of the enormous bill will affect us on a national level, it will also make things worse for Illinois. A recent report released by the Illinois Policy Institute revealed the nationalized health care plan will lower economic growth by costing Illinois 169,000 jobs, impose $57 billion in costs for Illinois taxpayers to bear, and shrink our state’s economy by 5.1 percent.
