On June 28, I woke up to the news that the Obamacare individual mandate is constitutional. Yeah! Now we can go forward with the Affordable Care Act and help millions of Americans get the health care they need.
I can't wait for 2014 when the law goes into full effect. If you have a pre-existing medical condition, you can get medical insurance. If you discover you have a serious illness, your insurance company cannot cancel your policy. If you are on Medicare, your drug costs will lower. You can stay on your parent's policy until age 26.
Now, if you want all of this to go away overnight, Mitt Romney will deliver on his word. He will take this all away. Our choice is clear. Re-elect President Barack Obama, who kept his promise to reform the American health care system.
