That is all the American people wanted. Instead a government takeover of 1/5th our economy was forced on a nation that did not want it." (justfacts.votesmart.org)
  • "Jacob Turk will work to repeal and replace Obamacare with a common sense solution that will provide coverage for those unable to do so on their own with no rate ups or turn downs for pre-existing conditions. That is all the American people wanted. Instead, with the help of Congressman Emanuel Cleaver, we got a government takeover of 1/5th our economy that was forced on a nation that did not want it. Under Obamacare millions of Americans have lost their healthcare plan and the right to choose their own doctor. And under Obamacare the insurance we are being offered is expensive - for some doubling their monthly premium! Obamacare needs much more than a tweak." (justfacts.votesmart.org)
