Chairman Sessions Statement on One Year Anniversary of ObamaCare

Washington, DC – National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Pete Sessions (R-TX) today released the following statement on the one year anniversary of President Obama signing into law the Democrats’ government takeover of healthcare:

“As Democrats celebrate their job-destroying healthcare law, the American people count a year of higher premiums, more taxes and fewer healthcare choices. One year ago, Democrats bought their ticket to election defeat as voters rejected their government-run healthcare scheme, and their continued defiance of the American people’s voice will remain a political poison. The healthcare law is growing in unpopularity as American families and small businesses feel the harsh consequences of lost jobs, intrusive government regulations and uncontrolled federal spending.

“As promised on the campaign trail, House Republicans have already voted to repeal and begin replacing ObamaCare with solutions for quality, affordable healthcare. Now, a Democrat-controlled Washington owes the American people the healthcare law repeal that they have demanded. Like the American people, Republicans understand that ObamaCare threatens American jobs and economic recovery and will again hold Washington Democrats accountable next election.”
