“It must be mystifying for people looking in this morning to hear about the most expensive one-page bill in American history. I say again. Only in Washington, D.C., could a Congress vote to repeal a $2.7 trillion government takeover of health care and the minority says it costs the American people money. Now, I know they don't like us to call it that, but let me explain. When you mandate that every American buy government-approved insurance whether they want it or need it or not, when you create a government-run plan paid for with job-killing tax increases, when you provide public funding for abortion for the first time in American history, that is a government takeover of health care that violates the principles, the ideals, and the values of millions of Americans, and the American people know it. Now, look. After we repeal Obamacare next week, we can start over with commonsense reforms that will focus on lowering the cost of health insurance without growing the size of government.”
