“Obamacare is going to be horrible for patients. It's going
to be horrible for taxpayers. It's probably the biggest job killer ever.” - October 2010
“While the federal government is committed to paying 100 percent
of the cost, I cannot, in good conscience, deny Floridians that need it access to health care.” - February 2013
None
“I think based on where the membership is today, the
votes are not there to expand Medicaid no matter what the governor says.” - March 2013
