Hartzler: Everyone deserves relief from Obamacare

(From Fourth District Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler)

Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler (MO-4) and the U.S. House have approved legislation to amend ObamaCare to delay until 2015 the enforcement requirements of the health care law’s individual and employer mandates.

“ObamaCare continues to unravel and it is now apparent it is headed for what Democrat Senator Max Baucus termed, ‘a train wreck,’” said Hartzler. “The Obama Administration has already indicated it is not prepared to move forward with the requirement that employers provide health coverage and has said it will delay the requirement mandate. Since employers are being allowed to delay compliance with this unworkable law, it is only fair that hardworking taxpayers be given the same treatment as businesses.”

 “Individuals, families, and businesses all deserve relief from ObamaCare,” added Hartzler. “The people of Missouri’s Fourth Congressional District have made it clear to me they are concerned that ObamaCare will lead to skyrocketing premiums and cause citizens to lose the health coverage they have and like. They are like Americans throughout the country whose opposition to ObamaCare has only grown since it was rammed through Congress and signed into law by the President. I call upon the Senate to pass these common sense bills.”
