During her campaign for U.S. Senate we heard a lot about the issue and a lot about a promise. Tuesday Republican Nebraska Senator Deb Fischer announced she's co-sponsoring legislation to fully repeal Obamacare.

She says she's working with 37 other senators to dismantle the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

Fischer says families can't afford higher premiums, and businesses are having to cut workers because of the costs.

She wants the law replaced with polices that promote more competition among insurance companies and preventative care.
