WASHINGTON, DC - MARCH 13: Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) holds a news conference to announce their plan to defund the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, at the U.S. Capitol March 13, 2013 in Washington, DC. Although Cruz and his fellow sponsors expect the legislation to fail, they believe it is an important survey of who supports health care reform.

"April Fools!"
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on Monday joined in the April Fools' Day fun, tweeting out a picture of President Barack Obama with the accompanying text: "I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficits... April Fools!"

The tweet also includes the hashtag #RepealObamacare, which Republican lawmakers have tried, and failed, to do dozens of times.
"A recent analysis by the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office (GAO) reveals that President Obama’s health care overhaul is likely to add $6.2 trillion to the deficit over the next 75 years," TheBlaze previously reported.
