Saying he fears harm to Arizonans, Gov. Doug Ducey today urged Congress to not to rush repeal of the Affordable Care Act.
“I don’t want to see any Arizonan have the rug pulled out from underneath them in terms of changing this law,” the governor told an audience of business executives, lobbyists and lawmakers.
“We can take a little time to get there,” he explained. “There’s no rush, although we should have sense of urgency because it’s topical now.”
Ducey said it’s not that he’s a fan of the program, calling Obamacare a “monumental failure and a rolling disaster.”
