Raúl Labrador (R-ID) released the following statement tonight after voting against a Senate insider deal to fund ObamaCare through January 15, while adding hundreds of billions to the national debt before the next debt ceiling, which was postponed until February 7: “Like nearly all of my colleagues, I promised my constituents in 2010 and 2012 that I would fight ObamaCare - not just cast symbolic, meaningless votes – but work hard to roll it back whenever and wherever possible. I also promised that I would oppose raising the debt ceiling without meaningful cuts to government spending. “During the past month, Republicans in Congress have been united on the issue of ‘fairness’ for the American people on health care. We also stood strong on the debt ceiling, insisting we would not raise it without reducing the debt. Unfortunately, what Congress is passing today gets us out of the immediate political mess engulfing Washington DC without making any substantial changes for the American people." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
