"A wise and frugal government which shall restrain men
from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government."

Pence Applauds Victory for Freedom in Missouri

How are Obama, Reid, and Pelosi going to spin this one? This was good news from Missouri last night as the people of Missouri said NO to Obamacare when they voted in their primary yesterday.

Pence Applauds Victory for Freedom in Missouri “Americans continue to reject ObamaCare’s job-killing mandates and tax increases.”

Washington, DC - U.S. Congressman Mike Pence, Chairman of the House Republican Conference, released the following statement today, a day after 71 percent of voters in Missouri supported a proposition which says the state of Missouri cannot compel people to pay a penalty or fine if they fail to carry health coverage:

“The American people have been loud and clear about their opposition to ObamaCare, but Democrats pushed it through against the will of the people. Yesterday’s vote in Missouri is a strong declaration that Americans continue to reject ObamaCare’s job-killing mandates and tax increases. By a margin of more than two-to-one, voters in Missouri rejected this government-takeover of health care that impinges on fundamental freedoms.

“House Republicans have been listening to the American people, and we continue to work toward repealing ObamaCare and replacing it with common sense legislation that will reduce health care costs and leave individual Americans with the freedom to choose their own health insurance.”
