Congressman Gosar's Statement on the Two-Year Anniversary of the Passage of Obamacare

Statement

Today marks the two-year anniversary of President Obama's overreaching federal health care law--a law that has looted Medicare, raised taxes, increased regulations, and caused health care costs to spiral upward.

"On the two year anniversary of Obamacare, Americans stand resolved that this legislation, if left in place, will spell the ruin of health care in this country. As a healthcare provider for over 25 years, I am confident that the best solution is a full repeal of this costly burdensome legislation which will hurt patients by undermining access to quality care while adding billions to our deficit.

Yesterday, I voted for the Protecting Access to Health Care Act (PATH), a comprehensive healthcare bill which included language that has been a high priority of mine for years. Legislation like this is the solution to fixing our healthcare system, not a full government takeover that costs jobs and bankrupts our nation.

I will continue to advocate for stronger, smarter and more cost effective measures to solve our nation's healthcare crisis without government interference. I am committed to a patient centered system of care that emphasizes personal responsibility and choice."
