Washington, DC,
May 4, 2017
Congressman Jim Banks (IN-03) made the following statement regarding his vote in favor of the American Health Care Act (AHCA), legislation to repeal and replace Obamacare that passed the House this afternoon: “While this is not a perfect bill, it is a significant step forward from the failures of Obamacare. This legislation has many important reforms that will benefit Hoosier families. These include permanently repealing the medical device tax, eliminating the individual mandate, opening up new options for states and protecting Americans with pre-existing conditions. Today is an important step in the long process of rolling back Obamacare, enacting free market reforms and improving our country’s health care system.” ### Interested members of the media may contact Anna Swick at anna.swick@mail.house.gov |
