"Today, on the first anniversary of President Barack Obama signing the Affordable Care Act into law, Representative Xavier Becerra (CA-31), Vice Chair of the House Democratic Caucus, released the following statement:
"After a year of steady progress, the facts are speaking for themselves.
No insurance company bureaucrat can now keep you from seeing your doctor when you get sick. They can't deny care to your child born with an illness or medical condition. Our seniors are seeing the cost of their medications and Medicare HMO premiums go down, not up.
And up to four million of our small businessmen and women that choose to cover their employees are receiving significant tax credits to help cover the cost of insurance.
The days when working families could face mountains of debt because a loved one became sick or injured are becoming history.
The American people are beginning to notice the benefits of this transformative health care law, and they like what the facts are saying."
