Hudson Votes to Defund Obamacare, Keep Government Open

WASHINGTON-Today, U.S. Rep Richard Hudson (NC-08) voted to fund the government for Fiscal Year 2014 while permanently and fully defunding Obamacare.

“Today we stood up for hardworking North Carolinians by shutting down Obamacare and keeping our government open to serve. Defunding an intrusive and expensive government takeover of health care that has and will continue to burden small businesses and families is critical if we are ever going to create more jobs in our communities. Today the House passed legislation that controls spending, defunds Obamacare, and prevents a government shutdown. I have stood by my commitment to my constituents to defund, delay, and dismantle the President’s unworkable health care law, and I look forward to my conservative colleagues in the Senate continuing this fight.”

The Continuing Resolution (CR) prevents a government shutdown and funds the government through December 15. It is a straight extension of current spending levels ($986.3 billion), and permanently and fully defunds Obamacare spending through prohibiting discretionary and mandatory spending and rescinding all unobligated balances.
