We'll Make Obama's Veto Pen Run Dry

Statement

Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) released the following statement today after voting to override the president's veto of H.R. 3762, the Restoring Americans' Healthcare Freedom Reconciliation Act.

"As a small business owner, I experienced the negative impact Obamacare had on my business, my employees and my customers. Now, in Congress, there's not a month that goes by that I don't hear from constituents about the heavy toll that Obamacare has taken on their family's finances and overall quality of care. What the president calls "affordable' health care is really just an elaborate redistribution scheme aimed at hurting middle class Americans and today's millennial generation. We must do everything we can to stop this.

"The Obama Administration's anti-free-market push into every aspect of our lives, including health care, has sent shock waves through the heart of this nation. Instead of saving for college, parents are paying nearly double to provide quality health care for their families. While students should be focused on getting a quality, affordable education, they now are faced with skyrocketing health care premiums. And let's not forget our seniors, who are paying for the same level of care, but with a significantly higher price tag.

"Although we did not receive the 2/3 majority required to override the president's veto, we will continue in our efforts to repeal Obamacare and reverse the other failed policies of this Administration. We will continue to pursue a bold conservative agenda and, if the President insists on continuing to exercise his veto power, we will run his veto pen out of ink."
