Congressman Earl L. "Buddy" Carter (GA-01) voted today in support of the FY 2017 Budget Resolution to provide the tools necessary to repeal Obamacare.

"I am proud to vote today to pave the way for the repeal of Obamacare," said Carter. "This is the first step in an important process to finally get rid of the Obamacare train wreck and resuscitate our broken health care system. With this legislation, my colleagues and I on the Committee on Energy and Commerce will have the opportunity to work on a stable transition to a health care system that is patient-centered and affordable."

S. Con. Res. 3 provides reconciliation instructions to authorizing committees, including the Committee on Energy and Commerce, to allow repeal legislation to move through a fast-track process that can pass with a simple majority in both Chambers of Congress.
