Tom Leppert on Health Care

 


Replace ObamaCare with market-based solutions

I would vote to repeal ObamaCare and replace it with market-based solutions. ObamaCare is unconstitutional, forcing families to purchase health insurance or pay a fine. It also places new mandates on small businesses that will cost even more jobs.

We must pass meaningful lawsuit reform, allow for competition across state lines, and allow businesses to band together to purchase insurance. I am opposed to single payer, government run health care.
