Healthcare Law Turns Two

March 23, 2012 Dear Friends,

Today marks the two year anniversary of President Barack Obama signing the Affordable Care Act into law. I was proud to sponsor the healthcare bill in the House and had the honor of standing with my Democratic Colleagues behind the President on that day. Over the last two years the Affordable Care Act has improved the lives of Americans both young and old. Unfortunately, this week Republicans released the Ryan Budget which attempts to repeal the healthcare law. Rather than trying to take coverage away I urge Republicans to abandon their attempts to repeal healthcare and join Democrats to help expand access to affordable and quality healthcare to all Americans. Republicans call it "Obamacare," and Democrats call it the Affordable Care Act. Whatever you call it, healthcare works.
