Trey Radel on Health Care

 

 


Repeal all parts of ObamaCare, regardless of Supreme Court

Our country has prided itself on freedom and liberty. Regulations like ObamaCare not only place severe restrictions on our freedom and choice but also threaten the economic livelihood of this country. ObamaCare in particular essentially forces individuals to buy a private product just because they are American. This is another example of the government excessively interfering in the lives of private citizens. This law is not only costly, but will also cause great inefficiencies in the medical industry, and have negative ripples throughout the economy. On Trey's first day in office, Trey would offer a bill to repeal all parts ObamaCare (regardless of the Supreme Court's decision).

In addition, Trey will also fight against any additional regulations will inhibit job creation and the free growth of our economy. Businesses need less red tape and more freedom of choice. Trey can lead this country back to its core values of liberty and prosperity.
