KING v. BURWELL SCOTUS RULING   Yesterday's ruling in King v. Burwell is perplexing to many of us across Texas.  It is imperative to reiterate that the State of Texas has chosen the correct path in not establishing a state exchange and not expanding Medicaid.  State exchanges can simply be described as a failure; Medicaid expansion an expensive mistake. While the Supreme Court has saved ACA legally, it cannot save the Act from collapsing from its internal contradictions and the ineptitude of those who are charged with its implementation. The Texas Conservative Coalition provided background yesterday on King v. Burwell and can be viewed here.  Today's Supreme Court Ruling   Today the Supreme Court disregarded the democratically-enacted will of millions of Americans by forcing states to redefine the institution of marriage. I believe in the sanctity of traditional marriage and will continue to defend those religious rights.       Capitol Visitor Information   My staff and I welcome everyone to visit our office as well as the historic Capitol building.  If you are planning a trip to the Capitol be sure to stop by our office, Room E2.814.  Here are some helpful tips for your visit: Texas Capitol Visitor Center Texas State Preservation Board The Bullock Texas State History Museum State Representative Dennis Paul       Texas State Capitol P.O.
