Today with strong bipartisan support, the House of Representatives approved H. Con. Res. 9 which denounces socialism in all its forms, and opposes the implementation of socialist policies in the United States of America. Congressman Posey (R-Rockledge), an original cosponsor of the resolution, voted for the measure while 86 Democrats opposed it. 

“Incredibly, 86 Members of Congress voted against opposing socialist policies, which is almost unbelievable, except that the Democrat party has been slowly spoon-feeding these radical ideas to the public and have been successful to date in passing unprecedented trillions of dollars to implement social programs that transfer wealth from the middle class to the powerful and restructure our country from the inside-out. 

"I was proud to cosponsor and vote for the passage of this important resolution because America’s founding principles stand opposed to socialism.  We stand for liberty and the American Dream, for the opportunity to pursue success and happiness, the rule of law, and the principles of representative self-government. Socialism disregards individual liberty for the good of the state – it steals more than it promises to deliver,” said Congressman Posey.
