Governor Bentley’s Statement on the Change to the National Healthcare Law

Governor Robert Bentley issued the following statement regarding the change to the national healthcare law that was announced by President Obama on Thursday:

“I would like to commend the President for recognizing what I have said all along, that the Affordable Care Act is unworkable legislation.  This late change is an acknowledgement by the federal government that the complexities of this convoluted law are making its implementation practically impossible.  I would like to see this law repealed and a bipartisan group of experts and stakeholders brought together to create a truly effective, accessible and affordable health insurance and healthcare plan for the people of this country.”
