WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) released the following statement regarding President Obama’s administrative “fix” for the millions of Americans who have lost their insurance coverage because of his health care law:

“The President’s decision is a political Band-Aid – not a permanent cure for millions of Americans who are losing their coverage and seeing their premiums skyrocket.  Democrats’ attempt to ‘fix’ one piece of a fatally flawed law that they all supported will not change the fact that Americans are losing their doctors, paying more for their coverage, and being forced to buy policies they don’t want. Now that President Obama and Democrats finally realize the mounting consequences of Obamacare, they should work with Republicans to make sure Americans get the quality, affordable health care that they wanted all along.”
