Res. 59, an amended continuing resolution which would keep the government open, delay implementation of the Affordable Care Act for one year, and permanently repeal the Medical Device Tax: “Tonight, the House of Representatives has again acted to keep the government open and to spare the American people from Obamacare, which is driving up health care costs, limiting access to care, and reducing hours and wages for America’s workers. While I continue to favor full repeal of Obamacare, a one year delay would at least give Nebraska families, businesses, and health care providers temporary relief from the mandates, taxes, and other negative consequences of the law. “Divided government means no one will get everything they want. Delaying implementation of Obamacare is a reasonable compromise, but the House cannot act alone. President Obama and Senate Majority Leader Reid have refused to negotiate even though the health care law clearly is not ready to be implemented, and many Democrats acknowledge problems in the law. It is time for all sides to come to the table and find agreement.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
