Hartzler: Supreme Court Obamacare ruling bolsters bad law

(From Fourth District Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler)

Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler (R-Mo.) released the following statement in regards to today’s Supreme Court ruling in the King v. Burwell case:

“Obamacare has been a disaster since its inception. This ruling does nothing to help the American people get out from underneath the clutch of an onerous federal mandate and bolsters a bad law, making it more difficult for Congress to work towards real, patient-centered reform to our broken health care system. Moreover, it sets an extremely dangerous precedent that the executive can unilaterally alter laws – a job constitutionally delegated to the elected representatives in Congress. I am extremely disappointed the Supreme Court failed to rebuke President Obama’s continued executive overreach of legislating from the Oval Office.”

    Ah, the irony that she is worried about Presidential overreach, and yet she voted this week to give up congressional authorization of trade / treaties. The cognitive dissonance is strong with this one.

    You and Billy Long vote for bad laws all the time. Republicans are becoming Obama lap dogs.

    Wait and see. Your premiums will go up alot. Expect 50% increase as that is what ours would haved gone up this year if we had to be Obamacare compliant. (Actually 64%). So good luck to all.
