Rep. Dennis Ross, R-Fla., tweeted “Individual Mandate ruled unconstitutional. Let Freedom Ring.”
Rep. Tom Rooney, R-Fla., tweeted “Breaking – #SupremeCourt strikes #individualmandate. Great news for American people, victory for constitution. #Obamacare.”
Rep. Justin Amash, R-Mich. tweeted “This is a big win for #liberty & the #Constitution.” And that tweet appears to remain in Amash’s timeline and was retweeted by Rep. Darrell Issa.

“Current law makes it illegal to [...]

We called for your attention and you responded. Members of Congress are starting to pay attention, and many media outlets quickly followed your lead. But that wasn’t enough.
