Supreme Court Affirms Individual Mandate of ObamaCare
Debra Maggart |
NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Following
this morning’s decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold the
individual mandate of the Affordable Care Act, Representative Debra Maggart (R—Hendersonville), who serves as the Chairwoman of the House Republican Caucus, released the following statement:
“This
is disappointing on a number of fronts. All of us know that limited
government is a uniquely-American principle. Today’s decision goes
against that principle.
“However,
now is not the time to sulk. This signals the beginning of a new battle
against Washington. States other than Tennessee are facing huge
deficits and ObamaCare will only drown them in red ink. We must find a
better solution to our rising health care costs and that begins with
improving our economy.
“Make
no mistake about it, we are going to continue pushing back. I am going
to fight for the health care rights of Tennesseans and I won’t be
satisfied until there is some measure of personal liberty back in health
care decisions.”
