“I am proud that our state is moving forward to implement the Affordable Care Act. It is making a difference in the lives of our constituents already: thousands have benefitted from the protections against insurance company abuses, lower out of pocket costs for seniors and tax credits for small employers,” said Donovan, a 5th Congressional District candidate, in a statement. “Health care is a national problem that no state has been able to solve alone—it requires a federal partner and a national solution. Our implementation efforts should not be derailed by baseless constitutional challenges.”
