October 22, 2015 - WASHINGTON, D.C. —Today, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), along with Sens. Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), issued a joint statement calling for H.R. 3762, the current reconciliation bill in the House of Representatives, to be amended to include a full repeal of Obamacare.

“On Friday the House of Representatives is set to vote on a reconciliation bill that repeals only parts of Obamacare. This simply isn’t good enough. Each of us campaigned on a promise to fully repeal Obamacare and a reconciliation bill is the best way to send such legislation to President Obama’s desk. If this bill cannot be amended so that it fully repeals Obamacare pursuant to Senate rules, we cannot support this bill. With millions of Americans now getting health premium increase notices in the mail, we owe our constituents nothing less.”
