Obamacare Premium Hikes Are Hurting Families

Floor Speech

Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, the failing Affordable Care Act has proven not to be affordable for American families. Health care premiums have increased with confusing coverage destroying jobs.

When Stepheni from Monetta went to the doctor, she found her ``copay for each therapy session is $250. However, I can be an uninsured self-pay patient and get the same therapy for $85 per visit.''

Connie from Aiken says, ``I was more than shocked to learn what used to be an $89 prescription was now more than $300.''

America's devoted mothers know firsthand of the failure of ObamaCare. Small businesses are hiring more part-time workers than full-time workers because ObamaCare costs are too high. Longtime employees are having hours reduced, putting families at risk.

We must repeal and replace ObamaCare, so that people like Stepheni and Connie receive relief from unworkable mandates.

In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.

Best wishes for continued success for Chad Sydnor, Military Legislative Assistant of the Second District, for continued service with Senator John Boozman of Arkansas.
