Stating that the cost of government run healthcare will be destructive by hurting the poor and middle class the most, Nick Sundquist today announced his intention to primary Senator Goeff Hansen (R-34th) because his record indicates he will continue to vote for the governments war on healthcare freedom. Sundquist believes he knows what the Republican base wants in Senator Hansen's district and what they expect in a state senator. Sundquist notes:

"It is vital that we have a state senator that actively works to keep government out of the lives of our families and businesses and work equally hard to protect the liberties and health freedom of the districts constituents."

"This will be a major issue for conservative primary voters in 2014.  Should Senator Hansen vote against our health freedoms.  I believe that conservative voters will reject a sitting senator who supports team Obama by voting to take away our liberties and will rally around a fresh approach that centers on lowering taxes, individual liberty, and reducing the size and scope of government intrusion into our lives.

If there was ever any doubt that Senator Hansen was out of touch with the current Republican primary voters, this vote on expanding Medicaid will tell us for sure." "

Senator Hansen is currently a member of the following committees:

• Agriculture
  
• Economic Development
  
• Insurance
  
• Outdoor Recreation and Tourism (Chair)
  
• Transportation
