GOP Weekly Address 6/30/2012 New Health Care Tax Just One Of Many Broken Promises From President Obama

In the Weekly Republican Address, U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyoming) calls for full repeal of Obamacare following the Supreme Court’s decision this week to uphold the President’s health law. A doctor who has practiced medicine for 25 years, Senator Barrasso says the Court’s ruling did nothing to improve the failed health care law: “It remains unworkable, unaffordable, and very unpopular.” Senator Barrasso says congressional Republicans are committed to repealing Obamacare and replacing it with health care reform that ensures Americans “get the care they need, from the doctor they choose, at a lower cost.” Senator Barrasso points out, “The President’s health care law hires more IRS agents to investigate you and to make sure you buy insurance — but it fails to deal with the shortage of nurses and doctors to actually take care of you.” Then he ads, “The President’s health care tax is only one of his many broken promises related to this law.
He promised lower health care costs, but they keep going up.
He promised lower insurance premiums, but they’ve increased $2,400 a family over the past three years.
He promised the law would create jobs, but the Congressional Budget Office projects that 800,000 fewer people will have jobs because of this law.
He promised it wouldn’t add a dime to the deficit, but the law calls for trillions of dollars in new spending that Americans don’t want.”
