In 2009, when ObamaCare passed the Senate, Udall said he was proud to be a part of the historic moment. He is so proud in fact that, four years later, he still believes ObamaCare was the right thing to do and he would vote for it again if he could. That is what he told a radio station in Denver. The 250,000 Coloradans who lost their health insurance plans as a result of ObamaCare – even after Udall promised they could keep them – might be interested to hear that.
UDALL: “So in the end we did the right thing. The law is far from perfect. My focus is making it work for Colorado.”
HOST: “So you’d do it again?”
UDALL: “I would do it again, yes.”
During the interview, Udall seemed to suggest that if he had been around during the ObamaCare debate in 2009 things might have turned out differently.
Udall: “I think, look, if I were there I would say here are some things that we should have done differently, here are some things that make more sense.”
But make no mistake. Udall was there and he voted for ObamaCare in 2009… And he would vote for it again too.
