U.S. Rep. Tom Rooney (FL-16) issued the following statement on today's Supreme Court ruling on Obamacare:

"Obamacare will drive up health care costs for American families and small businesses and hurt health care quality for patients. It's going to destroy much-needed jobs, cost taxpayers trillions of dollars, and impose radical new government mandates on individuals and employers. This law is bad for patients, bad for doctors, and the American people still want to see it repealed.

"We cannot afford this law. We're going to keep listening to our constituents and continue fighting for full repeal in the House. In November the American people will have an opportunity to send to Washington a Senate and a President who are also willing to listen to them and help repeal and replace this entire law."
