Marco Rubio Repeal Health Care Bill

Sen. Marco Rubio and Sen. Jim DeMint are co-sponsoring legislation to repeal the Affordable Health Choices Act.

“It is critical for the future prosperity and health of our country that we repeal ObamaCare and replace it with common sense reforms that will lower health care costs and get more Americans insured,” said Senator Rubio. “At a time when we need to be focused on creating a pro-jobs environment in Florida and across the country, ObamaCare has only served to foster uncertainty for job creators. We need to start over with reforms that promote competition, empower patients with more options, combat fraud and integrate the latest technologies for a system that better serves the patient.”

Rubio and other Republicans have repeatedly called President Obama's health care changes job killers. The Congressional Budget Office found repealing the health care legislation will increase the deficit by $230 billion over the decade. A repeal would result in 32 million Americans without health coverage. I have my own reservations about Obama's landmark legislation. The Republican merely want to turn federal health care into a voucher system with no cost controls. That is not reform.
