PER CURIAM.
      Kevin Olson challenges the district court’s1 dismissal of his complaint
challenging the constitutionality of provisions of the Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act, the Federal Insurance Contributions Act, and the
Self-Employment Contributions Act.

       After careful review, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See
Butler v. Bank of Am., N.A., 690 F.3d 959, 961 (8th Cir. 2012) (de novo review of
dismissal of complaint for failure to state claim). The judgment is affirmed. See 8th
Cir. R. 47B. Appellee’s motions to strike are granted, and Olson’s motion to take
judicial notice is denied.
