Kohl says health care debate necessary

August 12, 2009 By Andrew Beckett

The outpouring of emotions in the public health care debate is far from unexpected for one Wisconsin Senator.

Town hall meetings across the nation are drawing a wide range of public input on proposed health care reforms. Some of it has been positive, but there have also been a great deal of negative and angry comments.

U.S. Senator Herb Kohl (D-WI) says that’s the way it should be, especially when dealing with such an important issue as health care. He says it’s an issue that impacts the lives of every Americans, and should be highly debated.

Kohl says the debate will help to build a consensus on what plan is best for reform.

Still, the Senator has not scheduled any of his own town hall meetings in Wisconsin.
