Issue Position: Obamacare

Issue Position

As Americans began to experience the true impact of Obamacare firsthand, they understood why Republicans had fought so hard to repeal it.

With Obamacare's rollout in 2013, it became more and more clear that the American people would be forced to buy health insurance they didn't want, at a price they can't afford from a website that didn't work. Fact checkers have called the president's claim that Americans could keep their insurance if they liked it, the "Lie of the Year." As an increasing number of Americans see their costs skyrocket and their ability to keep their preferred doctor slip away -- they understand that broken promises are the foundation Obamacare is built on.

In 2013, Jeb championed numerous bills that repealed, defunded, and delayed this harmful law -- while supporting a market-based alternative (HR 3121). Obamacare could likely be the defining issue for the 2014 elections, and it will continue to be a priority for Jeb and conservative Republicans.
