Vitter Applauds Obamacare Repeal In U.S. House
(Washington, D.C.) - U.S. Sen. David Vitter today made the following statement regarding the U.S. House of Representatives’ passage ofa bill to repeal Obamacare.
“Obamacare is unconstitutional, raises taxes and premiums, cuts Medicare by half a trillion dollars, and puts government bureaucrats between patients and their doctors. Instead of this big-government approach, we need the targeted, common-sense reforms I've laid out with others to dramatically reduce cost,” said Vitter.
Immediately after Obamacare passed in March 2010, Vitter introduced the leading bill in the Senate to repeal the bill.
Vitter will re-introduce his bill to repeal Obamacare when the U.S. Senate convenes on January 26.
