Issue Position: Repealing Obamacare; Promoting Patient-Centered Health Care

Issue Position

Obamacare has been a failure, resulting in skyrocketing premiums, fewer choices for patients, and counties across the country that have no insurers on the individual marketplace. Out of the 23 co-ops set up under Obamacare, 19 of them have failed. In 2016, 6.5 million people chose to go without health care and pay an IRS penalty rather than buy insurance at the sky-high premiums under Obamacare. Simply put - Obamacare must be repealed.

I have been steadfast in my opposition to Obamacare in Congress. I have voted repeatedly to repeal it in favor of patient-centered health care. Health care decisions should be between you and your doctor, not left up to government bureaucrats. Under the tax law that has been signed into law by the President, the individual mandate is repealed, providing needed relief to millions of families.

We need to get rid of all of this disastrous law once and for all, and I believe that we should eliminate the Senate filibuster to get it done. Obamacare is causing real problems for Ohio families, and it's time for it to go.
