“Americans have wanted health care reform for some time now, but they don't want what passed last spring. This is a 2,000-page bill that gives us more mandates and more regulation. It doesn't accomplish the goal of reducing cost and increasing access; and it puts our health care decisions in the hands of bureaucrats, not in the hands of patients and family members where it belongs. There is a better way. With today's repeal, this is the first step. Tomorrow we begin the process of replacement with commonsense market-based solutions that are going to bring costs down, solutions like competition across State lines, portability, price transparency, tax parity, and allowing folks who have preexisting conditions to obtain coverage. I look forward, starting tomorrow, to working with not only my friends here on the right but also my colleagues here on the left to craft a bill that's going to work for the American people.”
