Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin is determined to do for textbooks what they’ve done for health care:
This is why we need the Affordable Textbook Act #TextbookBroke: http://t.co/GclcHJYdRz

Durbin and Minnesota Democrat Sen. Al Franken introduced the “Affordable College Textbook Act” a year ago and they’re still pushing it.
Maybe Durbin and Franken should send Jonathan Gruber out to sell the bill to “stupid” voters.
@SenatorDurbin If that's anything like the "Affordable Care Act" expect the price of text books to more than double & be rationed!

Senator Durbin, here are much better suggestions:
@SenatorDurbin Can we have an Affordable Government Act instead?

@redsteeze @SenatorDurbin What we need is an Affordable Government Act.
