Ryan Costello on Health Care

 

 


Replace ObamaCare; it will cost 2 million jobs

ObamaCare was an ill-conceived, poorly designed, and terribly implemented law, which has resulted in millions of canceled policies across the country particularly among seniors. Its higher taxes and costs on businesses and families are dragging our economy down. Even the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office has said the health law will cost our economy over 2 million jobs over the next 10 years, primarily among low wage workers. That's a shame, and it's not what Americans were promised by the President or Speaker Nancy Pelosi. The law should have been a patient-centered, market-based reforms, focusing on quality care, transparency in health costs, accessibility, and portability so that individuals can maintain coverage between jobs, while maintaining some of the commonsense areas of agreement in the law like ending discrimination of those with pre-existing conditions, and allowing young adults to stay on their parents' plans.
