postheadericon Boehner pushes 'HCRcostsjobs' hashtag

Ahead of this week's repeal vote on March's healthcare overhaul, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) continues to push the logic that "Obamacare" will worsen unemployment.

"'Priorities of the People: Repealing ObamaCare Critical to Creating Jobs, Growing Economy,'" he posted from his @SpeakerBoehner account on Monday.

Boehner attached the hashtag #HCRcostsjobs, which has since picked up speed on the network.

A poll much discussed over the weekend meanwhile showed that support for repeal has dropped sharply, and that overall opposition to the overhaul is near its lowest point since September 2009.

The effect of the overhaul on jobs is a matter of debate among economists, with many concluding that it will be moderate â€" neither as negative as Republicans say, nor as positive as Democrats say â€" according to the New York Times.
