Mulvaney: ObamaCare Is ‘Unconstitutional’ and ‘We’ll Take That Position to the Court’

‘We’ll give people the choices they want, the affordability that they need and the quality that they deserve’

RUSH EXCERPT:

MULVANEY: “A couple different things about that, what you just said at the beginning is not accurate. I won’t go into all the discussions we had in the white House. There’s absolutely zero daylight between the president and vice president on this issue. Both of them campaigned on ObamaCare being unconstitutional. Keep in mind what happened this week, just for context here. We had to decide to file a brief in a case in the fifth circuit, and the previous department of justice under Jeff Sessions had taken the position that some of the affdable care act should survive the legal challenge. The president simply said no, I ran against ObamaCare being constitutional. It is unconstitutional. We’ll take that position to the court. That’s the decision that was made. Here is what we’re going to do on health care. We said this from the beginning. We’ll give people the choices they want, the affordability that they need and the quality that they deserve. We’ve said that from the beginning.”
