Wasserman Schultz Statement on ABLE Act Vote
12/03/14 WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (FL-23) released the following statement tonight on her vote against the Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) Act of 2014:
“I am a co-sponsor of the ABLE Act, a laudable piece of legislation meant to help people with disabilities set up tax-free savings accounts. However, I decided not to vote for the bill once Republicans insisted on funding it by making permanent cuts to Medicare. I cannot in good conscience support Medicare cuts that will have a direct impact on the care that some seniors receive. At a time when we are concerned about the long-term solvency of Medicare and looking for ways to strengthen the program, cutting it is bad policy. I believe there were plenty of other pay-for options the Congress could have considered to fund the ABLE Act.”
