Washington - This morning, House leadership announced they would pass a bill that funds the federal government and affirmatively defunds Obamacare in its entirety. Heritage Action released the following statement from CEO Michael A. Needham:
"We applaud House leadership for putting forward a continuing resolution that will ensure taxpayers are not forced to spend another dime on this failed law. Americans understand Obamacare is unworkable and unaffordable because it is already separating patients from their doctors and employees from their employers. Now, Senate Democrats and President Obama must make a decision: shut down the government to protect a destructive, unpopular law or acknowledge Obamacare has failed and cannot be salvaged."
