Administration Again Moves Goalposts for Health Care
Another Day,
Another Delay
WASHINGTON, D.C., February
10, 2014 — National Federation of Independent
Business (NFIB) Director
of Federal Public Policy Amanda Austin made the following statement in
response to today’s announcement delaying part of the Obamacare employer mandate
through 2015:
“It
doesn’t always feel good to be right,” said
Austin. “Every time small-business owners hear about another delay or
random rewrite of the rules under this law, they are shaking their heads and
thinking ‘we told you so.’ Today’s news is simply the latest indicator that
this law is not ready for prime time and has systemic flaws that need to be
corrected permanently. Temporary delays are not enough.”
