Bill Foster Statement on U.S. Supreme Court Health Care Law Ruling

Statement

Date: June 28, 2012
Location: Naperville, IL
Issues: Senior Citizens Business and Consumers Health and Health Care

Bill Foster released the following statement in response to the Supreme Court's decision today:

"An independent Supreme Court majority appointed by Presidents of both parties have come together to uphold a law that says children with pre-existing conditions cannot be denied health insurance, insurance companies cannot drop your coverage if you get sick, and seniors can pay less for their medicine.

Congress should come together on a bipartisan basis to do more to reduce the cost of health care for small businesses and middle-class families, but mostly, it's time for Congress to get back to the business of growing and investing in an economy that is built to last for middle-class Illinoisans, not spending another year re-litigating the new health care law."
