Rep. Peters’ Statement on King v. Burwell Ruling

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Congressman Scott Peters (CA-52) released the following statement after the Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling in favor of federal health insurance exchange subsidies in the King v. Burwell case:

“Making health care more affordable and accessible for women and working families leads to a healthier nation, and allows more people to access preventative care which will lead to lower costs in the long-term. As we’ve seen with the medical device tax, there are still places to make adjustments, but today’s ruling will allow millions of men, women, seniors, and children to continue to receive quality health care.”
