Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, spoke on the Senate floor Wednesday regarding his amendment to H.R. 3762, the Restoring Americans' Health Care Freedom Reconciliation Act. "What my amendment would do is restore the promise that if you had health care that you liked in 2013, insurance companies could offer those same plans again," Johnson said. "They were far more affordable, far more affordable."
"Obamacare at its heart is a massive consumer fraud. A massive consumer fraud. So the purpose of my amendment is the purpose of a piece of legislation I introduced in 2013. The same thing. It's designed to honor the promise that President Obama made that he did not keep, the promise that was made under Obamacare that was not kept."
