Washington, D.C. – Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) made the following statement following the ruling by the Supreme Court upholding the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010:

"Although I am disappointed in the Supreme Court's decision today, I thank the Court for its consideration.

"Our health care system is broken and only will improve when Congress passes patient-centered reforms to increase access to care by lowering costs. As a member of the Ways and Means Committee, I look forward to continuing our efforts to find real health care solutions to benefit all Americans without tax increases and onerous government mandates."
