WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) released the following statement in response to President Obama's speech on the health care law.

“Obamacare is collapsing. Insurance companies are abandoning the program, leaving stranded families to face higher premiums and fewer choices. Just this month, we learned that 1.4 million Americans – including 400,000 in Florida, where the president spoke today – are likely to lose their health insurance next year because of Obamacare. Instead of a new sales pitch, the president should focus on providing Americans with immediate relief from his failed law.”
