President Barack Obama Signs Healthcare Bill into Law

U.S. President Barack Obama has signed his historic healthcare bill into law, ending months of debate and clearly dividing the Congress between enraged Republicans and Democrats hailing the measure as a victory for the American people.

 

As part of the new law 32 million uninsured Americans will now receive coverage and insurers will no longer be able to deny coverage to those with pre-existing conditions.

 

While healthcare reform has long been seen as a necessity Republicans have argued that the $938 billion price tag attached to Obama’s healthcare bill is too much for the country to take on.

 

Those concerns have been dismissed by Democrats, many of whom were on hand in the White House’s East Room Tuesday morning when Obama signed the law.

 

A relieved Obama was able to tell supporters “With all the punditry, all the lobbying, all the game-playing that passes for governing here in Washington, it's been easy at times to doubt our ability to do such a big thing, such a complicated thing, to wonder if there are limits to what we as a people can still achieve.”

 

He went on to say “We are not a nation that scales back its aspirations. We are not a nation that falls prey to doubt or mistrust. We don't fall prey to fear. We are not a nation that does what's easy. That's not who we are. That's not how we got here.”
