Vows to Repeal and Replace with Step By Step Reforms

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) delivered the following statement after the Supreme Court ruling regarding the President’s health care law. 

“The law remains unworkable, unpopular and unaffordable. 

“Today’s decision does not change the fact that the President’s health care law is bad for patients, providers and taxpayers.  It also confirms that the President clearly broke his promise not to raise taxes on the middle class. 

“Americans will not accept a law that results in higher costs, fewer choices, and less personal control.  

“It is now more important than ever that we get a President and a Congress that will repeal this law and replace it with step by step reforms that finally put patients first. Americans deserve to get the care they need, from a doctor they choose, at a lower cost.”

Senator Barrasso is an orthopedic surgeon and Chairman of the Senate Republican Policy Committee.
