WASHINGTON D.C. — Terri Lynn Land, candidate for US Senate in Michigan, has signed Independent Women’s Voice’s ObamaCare Repeal Pledge.
"Ms. Land's decision to take The Repeal Pledge shows voters that, when it comes to health care, she gets it – she understands that ObamaCare is a government infringement on our constitutional liberties, and she knows that it will lead to bigger government and less freedom, will place government bureaucrats between doctors and their patients, and will limit patients' choice and control," said Heather Higgins, President & CEO of Independent Women’s Voice.
The Repeal Pledge advocates not just repeal, but defunding, deauthorizing, and dismantling the misleadingly-titled Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, enacted in early 2010. The Repeal Pledge was designed as a litmus test to help the American public understand which candidates and office holders are serious about repeal, versus those who claim to be but won't actually take action.
Signers of the Repeal Pledge believe that this law cannot be "fixed" and that stopping its implementation and ultimately repealing it are necessary first steps to ensure that citizens and their doctors, not government bureaucrats, have choice and control over their health care, and that medical care in our country becomes more affordable and available.
