I'm not a fan of government mandates, and neither are my constituents in Mississippi. There is one mandate that the people of Mississippi sent me to Washington with: to repeal, replace, dismantle, delay, and defund ObamaCare. I've heard from families, small businesses, and hardworking Americans across my district who all have the same message--this law is a train wreck. That is why one of my very first votes in Congress was to repeal ObamaCare. That's why I've voted to repeal it nearly 40 times over the last 3 years. That is why I introduced a constitutional amendment to restore the right of the American people to refuse this bad law. That is also why I firmly believe we must defund ObamaCare in a continuing resolution this body will take up later this year. I believe this is a fight worth fighting for Mississippi, and I believe it's a fight worth fighting for the American people. I'm calling on my colleagues to join me in this fight to stand strong, to stand together, and let's defund ObamaCare. ____________________
