Wilson Statement on Obamacare Enrollment Numbers

Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) issued the following statement after the Administration released the first set of enrollment numbers for the Affordable Care Act.

"To say the Administration should be embarrassed by Obamacare's failed rollout is a gross understatement. Placing blame on a dubious, faulty website does nothing to address the problems American families are facing as a result of the unworkable law's implementation.

"The Affordable Healthcare Act will not work. Period. The American people overwhelming have lost faith in the Administration's ability to provide affordable insurance that does not drive up premium costs, cancel current healthcare policies, or limit access to the physicians we have relied upon for years.

"Former supporters of the law and those who have warned of its harmful impacts agree something must be done to protect the American people from further abuse. The President must be willing to come to the table and work with House Republicans on a solution. Arrogance and false claims will not insure the uninsured, give coverage to those who will lose their current plans, or create the thousands of jobs that have already been destroyed as a result of Obamacare," Congressman Joe Wilson stated.
