Statement

Date: Sept. 28, 2013
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Health Insurance Government Budget and Spending

Congressman Mike Pompeo, R-Kansas, voted late Saturday to delay Obamacare for ordinary citizens, pay the armed services, ensure that the government continues running. He released the following statement:

"Well-connected friends of President Obama shouldn't be the only Americans spared from the looming health care law--delaying Obamacare for businesses and not for individuals is irresponsible and reckless. This continuing resolution would also provide the hard-earned funding for our amazing armed forces and that the government is still providing services to the American people.

"The President has shown his willingness to delay Obamacare unilaterally in some instances, we are simply urging him to do so on a broader scale. I hope that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will also vote to keep the government open."
