The Republican from Lexington heard stories from multiple people who benefited from the Affordable Care Act, and one who was hurt by it.

“In fact, I mean, I’m reinvigorated to fix this broken health care system,” Barr said. “I know my constituents who are flooding my office with calls and Obamacare is making life harder for them.”
