Heritage President Jim DeMint is “sounding the alarm” and encouraging Americans to get engaged. But why?

Obamacare.

It’s a message he echoed on this morning’s “The Daily Rundown” with MSNBC’s Chuck Todd, and a message he’ll be talking about at Heritage Action’s town hall meetings this August.

“This law is unfair, it’s unaffordable, unworkable, it’s very unpopular,” DeMint said. “It’s going to hurt our country. It’s going to hurt people. If this is not worth fighting for, what is?”

Watch DeMint’s full interview above – it’s only about six minutes long and is a great explanation of why stopping Obamacare demands defunding the law.
