Washington D.C. (January 30, 2015) | Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) has issued the following statement on the U.S. House of Representatives’ plan to consider a full repeal of Obamacare:

“Obamacare is not the prescription for health care in America. At best, the not-so-Affordable Care Act has been a poison pill that Americans have had to swallow – all the way to the bank.

“When this sweeping health care law was passed, President Obama promised the American people, “if you like your health insurance plan, you can keep it.” Similar to many of his other failed promises, Americans are now suffering the most. The average American now pays nearly double for the same or less coverage than they had before, and many can no longer use the plans they were promised to keep.

“Government-run health care is not the magic elixir for our nation’s health care ills, and I intend to vote yes to a full repeal of Obamacare when it comes up for a House vote next week.

“Republicans are working toward a truly affordable, market-based solution that puts Americans back in control of their health care needs – not the federal government.”
