Senator David Rouzer, candidate for US Congress, led the fight against Obamacare in the North Carolina State Senate and remains committed to a full and complete repeal of President Obama's healthcare law. Senator Rouzer released the following statement today in response to the Supreme Court's decision on Obamacare.
"The Supreme Court's decision today strikes at the soul of America -- our freedom. The door is now open for the federal government to control every aspect of our lives as long as any proposed legislation is a "tax".
"Just because the law has been ruled constitutional doesn't mean it is good. Obamacare is increasing the cost of healthcare and making it more difficult for many to receive quality care. Many doctors are privately seeking their exit from the profession. Businesses are not hiring because of the increased cost of health coverage under Obamacare.
"We need less government control in healthcare so that individuals and families can afford to receive quality care. Only the free market produces the very best product for the lowest possible price."
The David Rouzer for Congress campaign also released a petition today, urging voters across North Carolina to stand with David Rouzer in the fight against Obamacare. The Repeal Obamacare Now petition can be found at davidrouzer.com/repealobamacare.
