Washington, D.C. – Congressman Reid Ribble (R-WI) today released the following statement in response to a Florida judge ruling the health care law unconstitutional.

“It’s no surprise that a Federal Judge ruled parts of President Obama’s Healthcare Law unconstitutional today. Make no mistake, we need reforms to our healthcare system, but an individual mandate forcing Americans to buy insurance is not the solution. Though I support certain ideas contained within this law, we need to scrap it and start again with real reforms that will lower costs and increase the quality of care. The healthcare law is simply too expensive, saddles us with too much debt, and has already proven to increase our healthcare costs.”"
