Replace ObamaCare with patient-centered reforms

Q: Is it the government's responsibility to be sure everyone has health care?

Bishop: Strongly Disagree.

Q: Should ObamaCare be repealed by Congress?

Bishop: Strongly Agree. The number one concern on the minds of families and businesses in the district is the rising cost of healthcare. We need to work on reforms that will make healthcare affordable and accessible, and not by mandating a government-managed marketplace. We need to repeal ObamaCare and replace it with patient-centered reforms.
