Just one day before the House of Representatives goes away for summer break, Republicans in the house approved a lawsuit filed by house speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) against President Barack Obama for not properly enforcing his Affordable Care Act law. Republicans even acknowledged the irony stating that even though they were/are against Obamacare, it is now a law, so the President must enforce it. Below is what house speaker Boehner had to say.
“This isn’t about Republicans and D
emocrats. It’s about defending the Constitution that we swore an oath to uphold and acting decisively when it may be compromised,” Boehner said shortly before his members granted him the power to sue. “No member of this body needs to be reminded what the Constitution states about the president’s obligation to faithfully execute the laws of our nation. No member needs to be reminded of the bonds of trust that have been frayed or the damage that’s already been done.”
Democrats are saying that this is merely a political “stunt” and is a waste of time that can be spent doing something else.
