Gov. Terry McAuliffe on healthcare ruling: ‘Victory’

Governor Terry McAuliffe released the following statement today after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act in King v. Burwell.

“This historic decision is a victory for the 286,000 Virginians who will now keep affordable health care that is essential to economic success. It is also a clear sign that now is the time to drop cynical efforts to prevent families from accessing care that will make their lives better. With this issue decided, I hope we can now put partisan politics aside and help 400,000 Virginians get access to health care by bringing our taxpayer dollars home to close the coverage gap.”
