Mario Diaz-Balart has always found the time to fly to Washington to vote against healthcare for kids, funding for schools and benefits for veterans. Now he says that a debate that was on his calendar for over a month has created a «schedule conflict.»

Tell Mario Diaz-Balart this is unacceptable. If he has time to vote against healthcare for kids and benefits for our troops, then he better make time to explain himself to his constituents:

Mario’s decision to skip this debate and the opportunity to talk to working families doesn’t surprise us. After all, how can he possibly explain that his campaign is funded by big oil companies while Florida’s families are paying $4 for a gallon of gas? What excuse will he have for opposing the new G.I. Bill?

Mario can run, but he can’t hide.

Tell Mario Diaz-Balart that if he shows up to Washington to pick up his paycheck and health insurance courtesy of taxpayers, than he should make time to speak to working families.

I am proud of the campaign Joe Garcia is running. It’s a grassroots campaign where we go out into the community and talk to people about the challenges they face every day. Our campaign is about offering our community a new path forward and real solutions to the problems we face.

Mario Diaz-Balart has decided to run a divisive campaign. He’s decided to distract voters from his record of voting with the Bush administration more than 90% of the time. But it won’t work.

Let’s send Mario Diaz-Balart packing.

Thank you so everything you do

Our family understands the importance of
our troops because we have someone
serving in Iraq.  This is why we believe
that when we send brave men and women
to war, we have a solemn obligation to
see that they get the hero’s welcome they
have earned when they return home.  This
includes benefits like grants to go to
college and proper medical attention.

Apparently, Mario Diaz-Balart disagrees with us. 

We were appalled to learn that just last week he voted twice
against funding a new G.I. Bill, medical care for veterans,
treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and even
funeral services for our fallen soldiers.

Even Ileana Ros-Lehtinen understood the importance of supporting
our veterans and joined other members of Congress, like Senator
Jim Webb whose son serves in the military, in supporting this
important bill.  This was a simple piece of legislation with one
clear goal: give our troops the hero’s welcome they deserve.

Tell Mario Diaz-Balart to support our troops.  Tell him his vote is
unacceptable:

Mario Diaz-Balart has voted in favor of the Iraq War at every
opportunity – rubber-stamping the Bush Administration’s
disastrous entanglement over and over again.  The fact that Mario
Diaz-Balart votes to send our troops to war, but then against the
benefits they deserve when they come home, is deplorable.  It also
explains why Americans have lost trust in their government
