Democrat Richard Carmona Doubles-Down On ObamaCare

WASHINGTON – Less than 48 hours since he secured the Democrat nomination for U.S. Senate – thanks in large part to the fact that he was the only candidate personally recruited by President Barack Obama – Richard Carmona reaffirmed his support for ObamaCare.

According to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO), President Obama and Richard Carmona’s healthcare law cuts $700 billion from Medicare and raises taxes on small businesses by $800 billion.  Additionally, the Wall Street Journal has reported that the healthcare law is the largest tax increase ever on middle-class families in Arizona and across the country.

Notably, Carmona recently said Mr. Obama was “brave” for ramming his job-killing healthcare bill through Washington.

“After being recruited by President Obama, it should come as no surprise that Democrat Richard Carmona refuses to repeal the job-killing healthcare law,” said National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) spokesman Jahan Wilcox.  “Given that Mr. Obama and Carmona’s healthcare law is the largest tax increase ever on middle-class families, Arizonans deserve a Senator – like Jeff Flake – who will repeal this costly law.”
