A year after President Obama signed his health care law into effect, the two leading Republicans in Congress are making it clear that they do not intend to let up in their assault on the historic measure.
In a joint opinion article to be published in the Cincinnati Enquirer Wednesday morning, House Speaker John Boehner and Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Republican leader, promise to continue pursuing “full repeal” of the law.
“The fog of controversy has now cleared, but contrary to the confident predictions of some, the contents of this law are even worse than anyone expected,” the pair write. “And that’s saying something.”
At the same time, Mr. Boehner is releasing a video describing the law as a series of “broken promises” to the public.
“In the coming weeks, you’ll see more votes and more hearings in the House to take this law apart, step by step,” Mr. Boehner promises in the short video. “That includes repealing the law’s mandatory spending slush funds. In short, we will do whatever we can to ensure ObamaCare is never fully implemented.”
