I don't want anybody between a doctor and a patient - not an insurance company bureaucrat or a Washington bureaucrat.

Everywhere I travel around my home state of Wyoming - but also around the country - I continue to hear, 'How can Washington make us buy something we don't want to buy, a product? They can't tell us to buy breakfast cereal or something else - how can they do that?'

Whenever Washington makes a one-size-fits-all decision, it doesn't work in states all around the country.

As a physician and a U.S. senator, I have warned since the very beginning about many troubling aspects of Mr. Obama's unprecedented health-insurance mandate. Not only does he believe he can order you to buy insurance, the president also incorrectly equates health insurance coverage with medical care.

Each and every day, more people pay the price of Obamacare's mountain of mandates. As I travel across the country, I continue to hear from Americans who want Washington to take its hands off of their healthcare.

Who makes decisions for families across America? Should it be a family with their doctor, or should it be some unelected bureaucrat in Washington?
