Issues: Government Operations Health Insurance

Today, U.S. Congressman Sean Duffy (WI-07) voted to keep the government open, delay Obamacare for one year, and, in the event the government is to shutdown, provide paychecks for our men and women serving in uniform. Rep. Duffy released the following statement following the early morning vote:

"Obamacare is not ready. Congress, the President and the American people know this. The President has already agreed to repeal or defund seven pieces of his signature legislation and today the House has given him the opportunity to delay the entire thing."

Rep. Duffy continued, "Today the House stood with the majority of Americans and passed a resolution that funds the government and delays Obamacare for one year. It is now the Senate's turn to take up the measure. I am hopeful that they too will remember their constituents and vote the will of the American people."
