Ranking Member Statement: ACA Repeal Vote #38 and #39

Jul 16, 2013

“Another week brings another futile attempt by the House Republicans to kill health care reform. Instead of taking action on jobs, student loans, the budget, fixing the sequester, immigration, or any other national priority, the Majority is once again wasting everyone’s time, money, and patience on their ideological crusade. Since they have taken over the majority, Republicans have spent approximately 15% of their time on the House floor and over $50 million in taxpayer money trying to put insurance companies back in charge of your health care and take the law’s benefits away from seniors, women, and younger Americans. The public should not be fooled by this latest attempt to sabotage the most important health reform in a generation.”
