What Do We Do Now?


Excellent, thoughtful article by Senator Jim Demint.

"Conservatives are reeling after two outrageous decisions last week by the Supreme Court. In one case they reinterpreted Obamacare so that 'established by the state' magically meant 'or the federal government.' In another, they redefined marriage—even though nothing in our Constitution gives the court the authority to do that.

What do we do now?

The Obamacare case is the simpler of the two when it comes to next steps. While the court refused to enforce the plain meaning of the text, Congress can still vote to repeal Obamacare and replace it with patient-focused, market-based healthcare reforms that will truly serve all Americans. Obamacare remains unworkable, unaffordable and unpopular. Congress must act to repeal it."
