The following is a Press Release from the office of U.S.
Senator David Vitter:
The Supreme Court decision on Obamacare is obviously an extremely
disappointing ruling. But I am more committed than ever to repealing Obamacare
outright.
Obamacare may have been judged constitutional in this clumsy way, but I
think it's also been proved a bad idea since its passage that's making things
worse. It continues to increase the cost of health care services and puts
the federal government between patients and doctors.
I'm sure President Obama and his liberal allies that forced this law through
Congress will try to spin the Supreme Court ruling as a major victory, but the
bottom line is Obamacare is a disaster.
This decision is misguided - it rewrites the
Obamacare mandate as a tax in order to uphold it. But that also makes clear
that President Romney and a Republican Congress can repeal this all through
reconciliation - with a simple majority in the Senate. That's what I'll demand,
what I'll fight tirelessly for.
At the beginning of this Congressional session I introduced leading bill in
the Senate to fully repeal Obamacare, and I'll continue to work tirelessly to
get that passed.
