Sen. Murkowski Supports Repeal Of Obamacare’s Individual Mandate
Hot Air ^ | 11/22/17

Posted on 11/22/2017 5:03:55 PM PST by Liberty7732

Sen. Murkowski wrote a piece for an Alaska newspaper Tuesday announcing she would support repeal of the Obamacare individual mandate which is currently part of the GOP tax bill.

I have always supported the freedom to choose. I believe that the federal government should not force anyone to buy something they do not wish to buy in order to avoid being taxed. That is the fundamental reason why I opposed the Affordable Care Act from its inception and also why I cosponsored a bill to repeal the individual mandate tax penalty starting as early as 2013. And that is why I support the repeal of that tax today…

On Rush today, I think it has something to do with goodies in the tax bill for her state.

McConnell needs 3 GOP votes to stop anything that might help Trump, and he has a pool of 10-12 senators to choose from.

Boy did you hit the nail on the head. McConnell doesn’t need to round up 50 votes to pass, but three to shitcan it. Can’t anyone go public with this ? Trump should just Tweet it.

I don’t understand how ANY Republican can support the “Individual Mandate”.

She’s been given a pass on this one. There must be others available to do the heavy lifting.

Collins voted no on Healthcare. I call her MADAM NO, she wants to hurt tax payers to give Obamacare a legacy it never got when all including Collins didn’t vote for the original bill.
Collins should be told by Trump that if she votes against the 330 million dollars the killing of the Mandate would raise for a larger tax cut , then she is over as a Republican, kicked out of the party.

I support Alaska repealing and replacing Murkowsky before she votes for another amnesty.

Same with all the Amnesty Senators, Graham, Alexander, Murkowsky, Hoeven, Hatch, Heller and Rubio.
Corker and Flake are quitting and McCain is dying, so we are getting a jump on it.

My BS sensors went full needle red when I heard this. Murky must have struck a deal for expansion of oil drilling in the so called pristine wilderness. This monster is a 100% globalist socialist. She is a snake. She will do anything to oppose our President and continue abortion of any child. Don’t be fooled by this, she is up to something.

Really? Does she support the freedom to not bake a cake for perverts?

Yup, it sure is.

Obamacare should all be gone in its entirety soon and hopefully McConJob is removed as the Senate Majority leader and Paul Ryan removed as the Speaker of the People's House.

These 2 supposedly leaders are so inept in their leadership positions. Paul Ryan is there because of the Idiot Congress critter Trey Gowdy's strong recommendation that this idiot be the next Speaker of the People's house after the Drunkard Idiot Boehner's resignation.

With friends like Trey Gowdy who needs enemies.

Congress needs to be thoroughly cleanse of these vermin.

For crying out loud we have had almost 18 years of inept leadership in the House.
