John Garamendi Supports Job Destroying Medical Device Tax

June 19, 2015

John Garamendi continued to destroy jobs and hurt middle class families by voting against the Protect Medical Innovation Act yesterday. Garamendi’s vote against the Protect Medical Innovation Act, which would repeal the 2.3% medical device tax, not only hurts California families but it also ships American jobs overseas and crushes lifesaving medical innovation.  

“It’s truly shameful that John Garamendi voted to keep Obamacare’s job destroying medical device tax which will ship American jobs overseas and stifle medical breakthroughs,” said NRCC Communications Director Katie Martin. “Garamendi’s inability to put job creation for California families first proves that he is no longer interested in putting his constituents ahead of Nancy Pelosi.”
