ObamaCare has been a disaster for Arizonans. My home State of Arizona has been hit the hardest. Premiums in Arizona for many have increased over 100 percent, and providers have fled the State, leaving some counties with one provider and little options for healthcare insurance. ObamaCare must be repealed. In fact, there is no constitutional authority given to the Federal Government to take over our healthcare system. These issues are, in fact, best left to the States to manage. I am advocating for a complete repeal of ObamaCare as soon as possible, with a transition period of no longer than 24 months. The approach I am suggesting will remove government from between patients and their doctors. Our alternative will encourage competition, which will in turn lead to lower costs to all Americans, but in particular, Arizonans. I remain committed to seeing this happen. ____________________

This is really humorous to hear the machinations and the twisting and goings-on from our friends across the aisle. As they say, this is too much. Mr. Schumer denigrated Black people and basically said they can't get the IDs. Kamala Harris…
