Rep. Loudermilk: House Passes Bill to Make Clear Path for Obamacare Repeal

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 -- Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga. (11th CD), issued the following statement after supporting a Senate Concurrent Resolution to authorize the relief of Obamacare for millions of Americans:

"When someone is severely wounded, before you can do anything else, you have to stop the bleeding. Obamacare has been an open wound for Americans, and we have to stop it before it gets any worse.

"Today, House Republicans took the first step in the healing process of our American healthcare system. This resolution does not repeal Obamacare, but it gives Congress the legislative tools to dismantle this harmful law and avoid continued filibustering by Democrats.

"We are excited to repeal it once and for all, helping all Americans have more choices, lower health service costs, and better care."
