Ted Cruz urges Texans to join fight against Obamacare

FORT WORTH — U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz continued his campaign against the national healthcare law Friday, calling on Texans to rise up and join a grassroots movement to try to repeal the program.

This time, he took his argument to a group of local businesspeople, saying it’s time for change.

“How do we repeal Obamacare?” he asked a crowd of nearly 300 people gathered for a Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce luncheon at the Petroleum Club. “It will come from millions and millions of people rising up and saying” that it doesn’t work.

He likened such a movement to a late 1970s push that ultimately ushered in the Reagan revolution.
