Statement

Date: Feb. 5, 2014
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Employment and Affirmative Action Health Insurance

U.S. Congressman Sam Johnson (R-TX) released the following statement in response to a new report from the non-partisan budget scorekeeper, the Congressional Budget Office, stating Obamacare will cause a "reduction in full-time-equivalent employment of about 2.3 million.'

"CBO's report further proves what we've known all along, Obamacare is a job-killer. That's wrong! If President Obama truly wants 2014 to be his "year of action,' he can start by working with us to repeal this flawed law that's leaving millions of Americans worse off. Americans want, need, and deserve action -- not empty promises."
