Repeal and replace Obamacare, GOP candidate urges

  • By John Andrews

Aurora City Councilman Ryan Frazier, one of several contenders for the Republican nomination in Colorado’s 7th congressional district, pledged Tuesday night at CCU that if elected, “I will fight to repeal this health care monstrosity and replace it with free-market reforms.”

Frazier spoke on health care, the deficit, and other issues to a packed audience of students and campus neighbors, about 50 in all. The event was sponsored by the Colorado Republicans chapter at Colorado Christian University.

CD-7 takes in much of Jefferson County, including Lakewood where the university is located, as well as parts of other counties in Denver’s north and west suburbs.

An invitation to speak at CCU as a guest of the Centennial Institute is pending with Congressman Ed Perlmutter, the Democratic incumbent.

Others seeking the GOP nomination in CD-7, including Mike Sheely and Jimmy Lakey (who has since dropped out) have attended Centennial forums in the past.

CCU student David Keimig, well-experienced with the health care system, listens to candidate Ryan Frazier’s policy discussion Tuesday evening.
