Sen. Messer Urges Senate to Heed President’s Call and Pass Full Obamacare Repeal Now

WASHINGTON, July 18 -- Rep. Luke Messer, R-Ind., issued the following news release:

U.S. Rep. Luke Messer (IN-06) urged the Senate today to heed President Trump's call to pass a full Obamacare repeal bill now and then work on a replacement package.

President Trump tweeted last night, "Republicans should just REPEAL failing ObamaCare now & work on a new Healthcare Plan that will start from a clean slate. Dems will join in!"

The President's tweet follows another setback in the Senate's efforts to pass an Obamacare repeal and replace bill.

"Hoosiers are sick and tired of endless debate on the Obamacare repeal bill, and the failure of Congress to act. This is DC politics as usual, and exactly why Americans sent the President to Washington to shake things up and get something done," Messer said. "We've had more than enough time to deliver on this promise to Americans, who have sent us here for three election cycles to repeal this failed law. I agree with President Trump that we must repeal Obamacare NOW and then work together on a plan to ensure Hoosiers get the health care they want and deserve."

The House of Representatives passed their plan to repeal and replace Obamacare back in May.
