Hoyer Statement on Republicans' Lawsuit Against the President WASHINGTON, DC - House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today after House Republicans filed a lawsuit against the President: “Once again, House Republicans are wasting the taxpayers’ time and money on a partisan lawsuit against the President. This time they are doing so in order to reverse a decision to provide private sector businesses additional time to arrange affordable coverage for their employees. Americans are tired of watching Congress focus all its energy on trying to undo the patient protections and cost saving measures of the Affordable Care Act. Instead, they want a Congress that gets to work helping our private sector create jobs, investing in opportunities that grow a strong middle class, fixing our broken immigration system, and addressing time-sensitive legislation before the end of the year. I urge Speaker Boehner to abandon this exercise in futility and frivolity and turn to the task the American people have made Congress’s highest mandate: to achieve bipartisan compromises that bring real results and move our country forward.” Visit www.democraticwhip.gov/ for more press, floor and member resources
