- Hans Lessmann. Facebook: Wall. 21 June 2012. "The Patient Protection and "Affordable" Care Act is nothing of its stated intent. It is not protective or affordable. Politicians do not help people when they pass laws that are unreadable and offensive. Bills passed at the last minute on Christmas Eve are a bad omen. This is not good governance this is negligence. In a family town, we do not sell out our children's future or our faith for mere party loyalty or personal grandeur. On November 6th the good people of Pittsburgh and the 14th district have a choice to elect a U.S. Representative native to Pittsburgh who as an Eye Doctor understands health care and small business."
