In response to the Senate’s repeal of Obamacare’s individual mandate, Heritage Foundation director of domestic policy studies Marie Fishpaw commended the effort as a step toward better health reform:

 

“It’s critical that Congress take every opportunity to undo Obamacare’s damage.This is a good start.Repealing the individual mandate will provide relief to millions of Americans forced to either buy health insurance in a market broken by Obamacare’s mandates or pay tax penalties. We urge Congress to quickly send this repeal to the President’s desk. Congress next needs to provide broader relief from Obamacare’s costly mandates, taxes, and limited choices for Americans."
