ObamaCare increases costs; empower patients instead
My neighbors in District 26 want a quality healthcare system at an affordable cost. The President's Affordable Care Act, better known as ObamaCare, has increased the cost of healthcare for millions of Americans and is threatening our economic recovery.
A law that gives the IRS an outsized role in our healthcare system, considers 30 hours a full work week, and cuts funding for Medicare is at best, deeply flawed. Our community and our country deserve a world class, consumer-driven healthcare system.
Only by empowering patients to make rational choices in their health care will we reduce the cost of care for all Americans and preserve the best healthcare system in the world. A new healthcare law should include consumer-centric reforms, demand more
transparency in the healthcare market, facilitate high risk pools for those with pre-existing conditions, and keep the promise of Medicare for our seniors.

Supports repealing Obamacare.
Curbelo supports the CC survey question on repealing ObamaCare
CC.org's self-description: "The Christian Coalition voter guide [is] one of the most powerful tools Christians have ever had to impact our society during elections. This simple tool has helped educate tens of millions of citizens across this nation as to where candidates for public office stand on key faith and family issues.
The Coalition is a political organization, made up of pro-family Americans who care deeply about ensuring that government serves to strengthen and preserve, rather than threaten, our families and our values. To that end, we work continuously to identify, educate and mobilize Christians for effective political action."
The CC survey summarizes candidate stances on the following topic: 'Repealing healthcare law (Obamacare) that forces citizens to buy insurance or pay a tax'
