The rising cost of health care is a challenge facing both families and businesses across the country. Americans need to be able to access affordable, quality healthcare, but I think a commonsense approach will serve us better than having the government create a one-size fits all program.

ObamaCare is a behemoth with so many parts that no one is sure quite how it works. The program will stifle the economy and ultimately make it harder for people and businesses to afford insurance. There's a reason almost 1000 waivers have been issued to businesses and states.

Families and businesses need the ability to tailor their plans to meet their needs. They need to be able to compare plans across state lines. They should not have to fit into a government-mandated, ill-fitting, expensive plan that only applies to those unable to afford a waiver.
