U.S. Congressman Kevin McCarthy also released a statement:
“Californians deserve a health care system that empowers the patient, is affordable, and stands on the time-tested principle of free market competition. House Republicans have been working toward a solution on these principles that provides relief to the American people from the current health care system that continues to drive up prices and eliminate choice. Unfortunately, enough consensus has not emerged to pass this bill. I will continue to work on solutions that provide health care relief for our neighbors, stabilizes and strengthens the safety net in our communities, and allows patients more choice and freedom from Washington mandates.”
