Today, the United States Supreme Court ruled to uphold state-based health care exchanges and taxpayer subsidies in a 6-3 decision. Congressman Randy Weber (R-Friendswood) made the following statement:

“The President’s health care law has been a major disappointment for hard-working Americans. Families are being forced to pay higher premiums for less coverage. The President promised that under this law all would be covered. According to the Texas Hospital Association, in my district alone, 164,976 Texans are still uninsured. Healthcare should be an affordable choice, not a mandate on taxpayers. The Supreme Court’s decision today further reinforces the fact that in President Obama’s America, the law no longer matters. The fight is not over. I will continue working to dismantle the President’s takeover of healthcare.”
