The new Republican leaders in the House have received millions of dollars in contributions from banks, health insurers and other major business interests, which are pressing for broad reversals of Democratic policies that affect corporations, according to disclosure records and interviews.

Much of that money flowed to the GOP chairmen overseeing banking, energy and other key committees - leaders who will play a central role in setting the House agenda over the next two years.

The impetus behind such largess is simple: Many companies and industry groups hope House Speaker John A. Boehner (Ohio) and other Republicans will succeed in rolling back Democratic policies they find objectionable, including environmental and Wall Street regulations.

As I mentioned in another article $100 million or more was spent by the Health Care industry to take away your rights to health care during the Clinton Administration. They are outdoing that in the past 2 years to end the present health care bill  to take away your present legal rights to not be denied health care and health care coverage.

However, it is very unlikely they can actually succeed fully. Because the Senate is democratically controlled and President Obama would veto that even if something passed the senate regarding health care being ended. However, if you don't want to be denied health care coverage it might be important to study what is going on in congress.
