Rogers: Latest Obamacare Delay Shows Law a Failure

(WASHINGTON, D.C.)—Congressman Mike Rogers made the following remarks today after the Obama Administration unilaterally delayed yet another key provision of the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. Rogers said the Obama Administration again is bypassing Congress by deciding not to enforce the employer health insurance mandate for a second straight year. 

“Last week it was the Congressional Budget Office report which said Obamacare would push 2.5 million workers over the next decade out of the workforce. This week the Obama Administration is delaying a part of the employer mandate for a second year, because they know the law will hurt working families and our job creators.  I believe these two incidents are just further proof that this law is a failure and call on President Obama to work with Congress to repeal this deeply flawed law.”
