Today, Congressman Bill Huizenga (MI-02) issued the following statement after the House voted to repeal ObamaCare:

"I wasn't here when ObamaCare was passed, but I am here because the American people wanted change. ObamaCare isn't the solution; it’s a major part of the problem. At a time when well over 12 million Americans are out of work and millions more have given up looking for work all together, the federal government should not be leveling a colossal tax increase on hard working West Michigan families and struggling small businesses. The President's health care law has broken numerous promises including: controlling costs, reducing the deficit, and not raising taxes on the middle class. I believe a better way forward would be to implement a bipartisan step-by-step approach that puts the patients and their doctors, not Washington, in charge of their health decisions. That is why I voted to repeal President Obama's 'signature' piece of legislation."
