These Republicans have lost their way and we can't keep making excuses for their betrayals.
LISA MURKOWSKI (R-AK) THEN: "This law is not affordable for anyone in Alaska. That is why I will support the bill that repeals the ACA and wipes out its harmful impacts." NOW: Voted Against Repeal
DEAN HELLER (R-NV) THEN: "The repeal of this law will not only reduce federal spending, but it will also allow Congress to address problems within the current health care system.” NOW: Voted Against Repeal
SHELLEY MOORE CAPITO (R-WV) THEN: "I have consistently voted to repeal and replace this disastrous health care law, and I am glad that a repeal bill will finally reach the president's desk." NOW: Voted Against Repeal
LAMAR ALEXANDER (R-TN) THEN: "Obamacare was an historic mistake, and should be repealed and replaced with step-by-step reforms that transform the health care delivery system." NOW: Voted Against Repeal
SUSAN COLLINS (R-ME) THEN: "I believe that we made - that Congress made - a real error in passing Obamacare, we should repeal the law so that we can start over." NOW: Voted Against Repeal
JOHN McCAIN (R-AZ) THEN: "It is clear that any serious attempt to improve our health care system must begin with a full repeal and replacement of Obamacare." NOW: Voted Against Repeal
ROB PORTMAN (R-OH) THEN: "[Obamacare] is fundamentally flawed. I do think we ought to delay ... and then we’ve got to repeal this thing and start over." NOW: Voted Against Repeal
There is simply no excuse for their opposition to repeal.
They spent years promising to repeal the law and now with a Republican in the White House they have the power to do it.
If we want Republicans to stop taking conservatives for granted and stop betraying our principles, we must help conservative candidates challenge them in their primary elections.
Without this counter-pressure from conservatives, there will be no accountability and they will continue to oppose common sense policies regardless of what they have promised to do in the past.
There are very few organizations that will take these incumbents on, but we're not part of the establishment and we know that change in Washington means changing the people we send there.
Thank you for considering this request and for doing so much to fight for conservative leadership in Washington.
