Today's Ruling Doesn't Change that Obamacare is a Failure

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (CA-23) released the following statement on the Supreme Court's decision in the case King v. Burwell:

"The only thing that is more disappointingly flawed than today's decision on what Obamacare actually meant is Obamacare itself. Obamacare remains a failed law that was forced through Congress on a partisan vote, and its consequences are being felt today. The law is increasing health care costs, reducing choice, and has led to fewer jobs, and today's ruling doesn't change that.

"Throughout the country, the American people are suffering because of the limits this law places on receiving high-quality care from doctors that patients choose, not the government. One thing that today's ruling does confirm is that we must repeal and replace this fundamentally flawed law. The House will continue to work toward a patient-centered solution and to help those who have felt the hardships this law has caused."
