Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas.) said that Congress should repeal Obamacare, in part because it infringes on Americans’ religious liberty.

The conservative senator said “every word” of the Affordable Care Act should be repealed during a speech he gave for the Faith & Freedom Coalition Conference on Thursday in Washington, D.C.
“To tell the Catholic Church, to tell people of faith whose faith prohibits it, that they must – their charities, their hospitals — must provide abortifacients, must provide contraceptives and pay for it, regardless of the teachings of their faith,” Cruz said.
