Rep. Goodlatte Issues Statement on Status of Health Care Legislation

WASHINGTON, July 28 -- Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., issued the following statement on the status of health care legislation:

"While the House delivered on our promise to repeal and replace Obamacare, I am extremely disappointed that the Senate failed to act.

"For years, the majority of my constituents have told me that Obamacare does not work for them. I do not see last night's events in the Senate as the end of this debate. Obamacare is failing, and Congress must act.

"I will keep working towards a solution to increase access to care and deliver affordable health insurance options."
