PLAINS, PA – I applaud the United States Supreme Court for ruling to leave the Affordable Care Act (ACA) intact. Their decision will ensure that all Americans have access to affordable health care.
In Pennsylvania alone, ACA has provided health care coverage to 91,000 young people under the age of 26 under their parents’ plan. Further, President Obama’s health care legislation has also helped cut costs on medications as 235,820 seniors saved $645 on their prescription drugs in 2011.
But the fight is not over. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt explicitly included in his 2nd Bill of Rights in 1944, “The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health.” As a Member of Congress, I will work to make sure that his vision becomes a reality.
well since no one has commented yet, I will just thank both candidate Cartwright and Bernie for posting things like this for those of us redistricted into the 17th.

ReplyDeleteMy wife and I cancel you out and one up you. Stay home. The 17th is a Democrat district, deal with it.
Did anyone get a load of the tea party nutcase Cartwright is running against. Oh. My. God. Heckuva job Repubs!
ReplyDeleteLaureen Cummings, the Republican candidate for Congress released the following statement yesterday.
ReplyDeleteToday, the American people and the Tea Party can claim a victory with the Supreme Court’s narrowing of the powers of the commerce clause and calling out Obamacare for what it really is: yet another tax.
In recognizing the individual mandate as a tax, the Supreme Court has clarified to the American people that the Obama Administration has no problem in further punishing Americans with yet another massive tax burden, even in the midst of what President Obama claims to be the biggest economic crisis since the Great Depression.
"This decision will reawaken the electorate and those Americans who not only want government out of their lives, but also, who refuse to give the IRS even more power than it already has. This decision is a rallying cry to elect those of us who will repeal this law and reform our Byzantine tax code."
I posted her statement.

ReplyDeleteThat's what's wrong with Socialists, the ACA has provided health care. Sure and who will be footing the bill?
Unless a 26 year old is still pursuing a masters or doctorate degree they should have a job not living in their parent's basement. Thank Barry for no jobs!
