Arizona Rep. David Schweikert (R-CD5) did not get to speak during the House debate on HR2, which passed late this afternoon. The proposal to repeal last year's healthcare reform bill will now move to the Senate, where it appears to be stuck. However, Schweikert did send out a campaign committee fundraising e-mail today supporting the repeal effort. The text is below the jump.
In it, he asks the reader to "Stand with David Schweikert in 2011! Click here to support our fight in Congress to bring real healthcare reform that does not bankrupt our nation." He then claims that "ObamaCare" will cost $2.7trillion and increase the national deficit by nearly $700 billion.

TEXT OF E-MAIL:
As Members of Congress vote this week to repeal ObamaCare, the cause has never been more clear.
Americans don’t deserve policies that create uncertainty, slow job creation, and add to our unsustainable debt.
When the Democrats passed ObamaCare, they pushed through tax increases that shake the very foundation of our free enterprise system:
Medicare Payroll Taxes
Surtax on Investment Income
HSA Withdrawal Taxes
Medical Devise Taxes
New Taxes on Innovation, Charitable Hospitals, Pharmacy Services, and Health Insurers
Cumbersome W-2 Employer Reporting Regulations
Taxes on Indoor Tanning Services
And that’s just the start - - Click here to see a list growing list compiled by Americans For Tax Reform!
Stand with David Schweikert in 2011! Click here to support our fight in Congress to bring real healthcare reform that does not bankrupt our nation.
ObamaCare will cost $2.7 trillion and add nearly $700 billion to our deficit!
America has always been the land of opportunity and today our entrepreneurial spirit is being rattled by command-and-control, massive new government bureaucracy.
We deserve better.
Can David count on your support in 2011? Stand with David and send the message to Washington today!
