Chairman Fitzgerald Opening Statement - Judiciary Subcommittee Hearing on Obamacare Subsidy Fraud

Published | Video Starts at 06:32

In closing, let me just say that Republicans are committed to real reforms that would lower premiums and give patients more choices over their health care. Some of our witnesses are prepared to discuss solutions that could do just that. But Obamacare as a whole, it's broken. After 15 years, it's broken. Despite generous taxpayer subsidies, it has not made health care more affordable. It has not shown evidence of a program that has any integrity and it has only further enriched large health insurance companies. It is truly the Unaffordable Care Act. (06:32–06:45)
