U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) issued the following statement after the White House announced that Obamacare cost-sharing subsidies are exempt from the cuts of the sequester.
"After all his claims that he was powerless to stop the effects of the sequester, the President is now conveniently exempting a portion of his failed healthcare law. Rather than cherry-picking when the law applies in order to prop up Obamacare, President Obama should focus his attention on policies to grow the economy, increase jobs, and address his flawed healthcare law."
