Cruz: Reid Decision To Exempt Staff From Obamacare Latest Example of Washington Disconnect

HOUSTON, TX -- U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) released the following statement on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's (D-Nev.) decision to exempt staff members from Obamacare exchanges:

"Sen. Reid's decision to exempt his staff from Obamacare exchanges is the clearest example yet of Obamacare's failures and Washington hypocrisy. His staff worked to pass it and continue to promote it, now they don't want to be part of it because it's a disaster. No one wants to lose their plans, pay higher premiums, higher deductibles, and have healthcare choices taken away from them. But, by passing Obamacare that’s exactly what Leader Reid and his staff did to millions of Americans. Now they understandably don't want to live with it. The only fair path forward is to repeal Obamacare, in its in entirety, for everyone."
