Last night, Ted Cruz was heckled during his speech at a Defund Obamacare event that was organized by Heritage Action for America.
Before the men were drowned out with chants of “USA,” they started with their own chant of: “You have health care, so can we!”
Instead of ignoring them and brushing their comments off, he addressed them. Even agreeing with them, Cruz said “They should have health care, and Obamacare is causing more and more people struggling to climb the economic ladder to lose their health care.”

The truth is that more and more people are being forced to lose their current insurance, a promise Obama used to sell it to people. Each day that goes by, businesses slash hours of their employees so they don’t have to provide insurance benefits. The most recent to hit the list, UPS!
UPS is ending insurance coverage of 15,000 working spouses. Their reason? COST!
There are more than enough reasons to defund Obamacare. And thanks to the work of Jim Demint and Heritage Action, people are starting to pay more attention.
